FC Bayern: Who will be the new replacement?
First report from January 3rd:
Munich – On Tuesday, FC Bayern started preparations after a week-long break, and the training camp will start on Friday.
However, there was still no new keeper at the first mandatory date in the new year, and the search for a replacement for the injured Manuel Neuer is still ongoing.
According to a recent report, the top candidate Yann Sommer could imagine a change, the Swiss is said to have already informed his employer about his intentions.

FC Bayern: Internal deadline for the goalkeeper search expires with departure to Qatar
Julian Nagelsmann is preparing his players for the start of the second half of the season on January 20th in Leipzig over the next two and a half weeks.
Bayern are already flying to the almost traditional training camp in Qatar on January 6. According to reports, that day of departure was set in advance as the deadline for the goalkeeper question.
Bayern Munich have been on the lookout for a keeper since goalkeeper Manuel Neuer suffered a serious skiing accident, in which the 36-year-old broke his lower leg.
A premature termination of Alexander Nübel's loan proved difficult, as his current AS Monaco makes the negotiations difficult and the 26-year-old does not have the best relationship with goalkeeping coach Toni Tapalovic.

That is why those responsible in Munich sounded out the market to find an external solution for the current construction site.
For example, the Moroccan national goalkeeper Bono from FC Sevilla came into the focus of the record champions, and FC Bayern is said to have recently knocked on the door of national player Kevin Trapp.
The most likely candidate, however, is the Mönchengladbach veteran Yann Sommer.

Yann Sommer: Manageable fee for the Swiss – next step England?
After eight and a half years, the Swiss national keeper could leave Gladbach, but the "foals" would collect a transfer fee in line with the market.
Because Sommer's contract runs until the end of June 2023, which is why Bayern would have to transfer at least five million to Borussia.
Under these circumstances, the current eighth in the Bundesliga would probably give up his goalkeeper in January.
For Manuel Neuer, a transfer from summer to the end of the season would probably be the best solution, so he would avoid tough competition in the coming season with Trapp or Bono.
Sommer, on the other hand, would be on the market for a free transfer after the season and could already join the next top club, as the
SZ
writes, if Manchester United are said to be “very interested”.
