According to reports from German media SPORT1 and German Sky Sports, Bayern Munich captain Neuer told the club's top brass a few months ago that he wanted to retire in Munich and did not want to change clubs. Neuer will renew his contract with the club, but the exact timing of the signing is unclear.
SPORT1 said Salihamidzic still wanted to keep Nubel, even if Neuer was about to renew his contract. If Neuer extends his contract until 2024, Nubel will be able to imagine continuing to rent out until 2024, but if Neuer extends his contract until 2025, Nubel will definitely leave the team. Salihamidzic was looking for a solution.
Another German media outlet, The Kicker, also said that Bayern Munich hopes to recall Nubert with one year left on loan this summer, and persuade him to accept Neuer's role as a substitute, hoping to find a model that allows the two to coexist.
SPORT1 said Neuer and Nubel could not coexist at Bayern Munich and that all parties had ruled out the possibility. Last season, the team was at odds over the subject, as Nubel was promised some chances to play, and Neuer was unhappy that the topic was often brought up.
