Sven Ulreich will stay with FC Bayern.

The goalkeeper and substitute for Manuel Neuer has extended his contract until 2023.

Munich – FC Bayern is working through the upcoming contract extensions bit by bit.

Sven Ulreich has extended his contract in Munich.

The goalkeeper and substitute for captain Manuel Neuer signs a new working paper until June 30, 2023.

FC Bayern: Sven Ulreich extends contract – "He's always there when you need him"

“FC Bayern has become like a family over the years.

I look forward to another year here.

I enjoy the task behind a world goalkeeper like Manuel Neuer, we have a friendly, collegial relationship with each other," said Ulreich about the contract extension.

FC Bayern Munich can continue to rely on Ulreich's services should regular keeper Neuer fail.

"We're delighted that Sven will stay at Bayern Munich for another year.

With his character and his mentality, he fits perfectly into our group.

Sven has an excellent understanding of his role and is always there when you need him," said sporting director Hasan Salihamidzic.

Contract with FC Bayern Munich until: June 30, 2023

FC Bayern: Goalkeeper Ulreich is a reliable new replacement

Ulreich switched from VfB Stuttgart to FC Bayern in 2015 and is already in his seventh season with Munich.

In the 2020/21 season, the 33-year-old played for Hamburger SV but missed out on promotion to the Bundesliga.

Last summer, Neuer's backup returned to Säbener Straße.

Ulreich has played 78 competitive games for Bayern so far.

He won the championship six times, the DFB Cup three times, the German Supercup five times, the Champions League and the European Supercup.

Ulreich could be relied on in eight games this season.

In the round of 16 first leg of the Champions League in a 1-1 draw at RB Salzburg, he confidently replaced Neuer, who was injured at the time.

His last game was the 3-1 draw in the Bundesliga in Mainz a week ago.

In the last Bundesliga home game of the season against Ulreich's former club Stuttgart on Sunday (May 8, 5:30 p.m.), Neuer is likely to return to the Munich goal.

FC Bayern: Ulreich's contract extension - will Neuer soon follow suit?

Ulreich is now ready for another year as a new representative.

The contract with Manuel Neuer also runs until 2023, but FC Bayern is working on extending it by at least another year.

Neuer should see the extension of Ulreich as a positive signal for a further trusting cooperation.

Teammate Thomas Müller has already extended his contract with FC Bayern.
