It’s been almost a year since we last saw Manuel Neuer on a football field. On his return from a failed World Cup with the Mannschaft, the German goalkeeper took advantage of a few days of vacation to treat himself to a stay in the mountains but he broke his right leg while skiing. Since then, the 37-year-old goalkeeper had returned to training last May but had to be absent again after a calf injury. Finally, the Gelsenkirchen native returned to training in August and everything has been going well since.
For this reason, a return from October is seriously considered in Bavaria. As Sky Sports affirmed this Monday, the 2014 world champion could return against Mainz on October 21 (6:30 p.m.) or against Galatasaray in the Champions League three days later (6:45 p.m.). According to our colleagues from across the Rhine, the former Schalke 04 player will be back in goal against Darmstadt on October 28 at the latest. Another important clarification from the German media, Manuel Neuer does not wish to go through the replacement box and wishes to be started upon his return as he feels ready and he would be very determined to resume competition. Bavarian supporters can rub their hands…
