But no contract extension? English top club probably attracts Manuel Neuer

FC Bayern want to extend the contract with Manuel Neuer, but is not yet in agreement. Now there is a move to the Premier League.

• FC Bayern Munich and Manuel Neuer are probably working on a contract extension.
• Bayern have signed Alexander Nübel from Schalke 04 for the coming season.
• A Premier League club is said to be interested in new players.

Munich - FC Bayern Munich * and Manuel Neuer: A marriage that has now existed for almost nine years - and which, if it is up to both parties, should be extended soon. However, there are still discrepancies.

As the picture reports, Neuer should demand a long-term contract, while FC Bayern insists on a rather shorter term of the new working paper. The new overall package required is still too big for the German record champions * . The current contract of the world champion from 2014 runs until 2021. For the coming season, the squad * will also be strengthened with Alexander Nübel from FC Schalke.

Manuel Neuer: Alternatives to FC Bayern? Most of the top clubs are well staffed

If it becomes clear by summer that both sides can no longer find each other, the coming transfer period from July 1 would be the last opportunity for FCB to sell new ones for a transfer fee - the winter transfer period 2020/2021 , in which such changes are rather unusual , except sometimes. Otherwise, the keeper could say goodbye in 2021.

It should go without saying that the 34-year-old goalkeeper would be a coveted staff on the transfer market - but there are not many interested parties in the raffle. A change within the Bundesliga * is probably out of the question and the top European clubs are almost always in top positions at the goal.

Transfer rumor at Bayern Munich: shows Chelsea interested in Manuel Neuer?

Only Chelsea FC is brought into the conversation by the picture . Coach and club legend Frank Lampard should not be satisfied with his 80 million man Kepa Arrizabalaga , has increasingly relied on 38-year-old Willy Caballero in the last games. Even if it is difficult to sell Kepa due to its price tag - there should be a basic interest in new ones.

The future will show whether the trail to London remains really hot. The fact is that Neuer never played abroad and that could irritate him again at the end of his career. Even if a switch to the "blues" were out of the question, English interest would be an excellent means of exerting pressure in the contract negotiations with Bayern.

Neuer is also part of a crazy transfer rumor from Spain. As a result, he could be replaced by Marc-Andre ter Stegen at FCB. A transfer from David Alaba to Real Madrid is still under discussion. Board boss Karl-Heinz Rummenigge has already spoken plain text * on the personnel.
