"It is TRUE: Bayern Munich want to offer Manuel Neuer a one-year contract extension after his birthday. The supervisory board already talked about this. The question is only how much money they should give the goalkeeper. He was injured, and at the end of March, he'll turn 40. Neuer's also still one of the top earners at the club."
"The veteran goalkeeper picked up an injury during Bayern's 4-1 win over Borussia Monchengladbach on Friday night and was replaced by Jonas Urbig at half-time. Neuer has reportedly suffered a calf strain that will rule him out of the Champions League clash against Atalanta, and he is also expected to miss the upcoming Bundesliga fixture against Bayer Leverkusen."
Bayern Munich travels to Bergamo to face Atalanta in the Champions League last-16 first leg on Tuesday. The Bavarian club arrives in strong form with six consecutive wins and eight matches unbeaten. Harry Kane is expected to return, but manager Vincent Kompany will be without several key players including Alphonso Davies, Hiroki Ito, and crucially, goalkeeper Manuel Neuer. Neuer suffered a calf strain during Bayern's 4-1 victory over Borussia Monchengladbach and will miss both the Atalanta match and the upcoming Bundesliga fixture against Bayer Leverkusen. Beyond the injury, speculation surrounds Neuer's future at the club. Bayern's supervisory board is willing to offer the 39-year-old a one-year contract extension, though negotiations focus on salary terms given his current status as a top earner.
