Thomas Müller spent 25 years training, playing, and laughing around the Bayern Munich campus. Due to poor communication and strained relationships within the front office, Müller was not afforded the opportunity
to leave on his own terms. Bayern’s management team clearly learned from this egregious mistake and has stayed ahead of the presses on extensions for expiring contracts in the case of Dayot Upamecano, Manuel Neuer, and Serge Gnabry.
In the specific situation of Neuer, Bayern’s legendary captain, a recent report has established a clear cut timeline for the negotiations.
The decisive meeting to decide Manuel Neuer’s future will take place during March’s international break. An announcement is expected early April. Within the club, there’s uncertainty whether Neuer will continue next season or not.
The general consensus among fans is that Neuer should be extended for one more year but asked to allow more playing time for Jonas Urbig. Urbig is patiently waiting in the wings and developing on the training pitch, but Urbig turns 23 years old this summer and will looking for guaranteed playing time.
