From the source

According to a report from Sport Bild journalists Julian Agardi and Heiko Niedderer (as captured by @iMiaSanMia), Bayern Munich has a plan for Jonas Urbig, and it involves giving the young goalkeeper more responsibility without asking him to carry the weight of the world just yet.

Bayern Munich is targeting around 25 appearances for Urbig this season, with the goal of gradually preparing him to succeed Manuel Neuer as the club’s No.

Rather than throwing Urbig into the deep end, Bayern wants to make sure he accumulates enough experience by the time Neuer eventually calls it a career.
