At 29, Alexander Nübel still remains in the shadow of Manuel Neuer. Currently on loan to VfB Stuttgart, the third goalkeeper of Bayern Munich is taking advantage of this experience to prepare to one day succeed his elder as number one of the Roten.

But the wait is becoming more and more difficult for the native of Paderborn. Despite his extension with the German champion last April, until June 2029, the idea of ​​leaving next summer is growing more and more in his mind.

Neuer will leave, will he not leave?

The final choice of Nübel should be closely linked to Neuer's future. If the Bavarian captain, whose contract expires next June, were to extend, the Swabian goalkeeper could decide to leave.

According to Sky Germany, Nübel does not wish to continue a fourth consecutive season on loan. A permanent transfer to Stuttgart is not on the agenda either, his salary – almost a million per month – being only a third covered by the fourth in the Bundesliga.
