Neuer extends Bayern Munich contract until 2024
Germany goalkeeper Manuel Neuer has extended his contract at Bayern Munich until 2024, the Bundesliga champions said in a statement on Monday.
“I’m very pleased that my journey continues at Bayern Munich. We’ll have a very good team again with which we can play for every title,” Neuer said.
He added, “As a goalkeeper, captain and leader, I want to be the support and a key factor in our big goals. We want to extend our title record and compete again for the German Cup and UEFA Champions League.”
The 36-year-old appears to have got over injury problems which dogged the middle part of his career, and is still a standout goalkeeper in German football.
His deal followed a new contract for Thomas Müller, also until 2024.
But the third ageing jewel in Bayern Munich’s crown, Robert Lewandowski, has turned down a new deal with his existing contract running out in 2023.
Bayern Munich want him to stay next season, but reports say they are mulling a sale.
