""I'm not setting myself any targets. As I said, I live in the here and now and I'm not thinking too much about it," Neuer reiterated in a December interview with Bundesliga.com, as captured by @iMiaSanMia. "I want to finish off this part of the season positively and then we'll go again in January and try to have a good start."
""We'll play up until March until the first international break and then we'll take it from there. I can't really answer that at the moment because I don't really know that myself. A lot of things have to be right. My body has to be at a certain level that I am happy with and where I can deliver performances. Of course, the club plays a role in this decision too, so we will have to sit together and make a decision at some point.""
Manuel Neuer is approaching 40 and faces recurring uncertainty over his playing future with a year-to-year Bayern contract. Neuer says he is not setting targets and is living in the present, aiming to finish the current part of the season positively and to restart in January. He plans to play through the March international break, after which decisions about his future will be made. Neuer emphasizes that his body must reach a level that allows him to deliver performances and that the club must be aligned. The March break is a last chance for national-team selection ahead of the World Cup.
