Hasan Salihamidzic and Marco Neppe recently traveled to France to meet Alexander Nübel. The point was to talk about the future of the loaned keeper in Munich. Bayern officials have already made a decision. Nübel will not return in 2023.
As long as Manuel Neuer is at Bayern Munich, Alexander Nübel will not return to Munich. There is currently no end in sight for Manuel Neuer’s career, which is why his young rival is still on hold. “We have Manuel Neuer and he is untouchable. He will definitely play for two or three more years,” said Salihamidzic, who also announced that “Ulreich will also be there”. The substitute goalkeeper’s contract expires next summer, but the decision seems to have already been made. The same applies to Nübel: “He will not come back in 2023,” said the Munich sports director. After all, it doesn’t need “a competitor for Neuer”. After all, he is the “captain” and does not need anyone “to push him”.
Nübel is loaned to Monaco until 2023 and still has a contract with FC Bayern until 2025. According to kicker, the Munich team see the 26-year-old as the future number one and want to keep him longer. However, according to the report, Premier League clubs are still interested in the current Monaco keeper. It now remains to be seen what will happen if Manuel Neuer is in the Bayern box longer than 2024. In the meantime it almost seems as if the captain wants to do another year or two.
