Neuer or Urbig? Matthäus warns against rushing decisions regarding Bayern’s goalkeeper
Story updated
The story in brief
28-second readThe debate over the goalkeeper position at FC Bayern continues to gain momentum. Following Manuel Neuer’s costly mistake in the 2-2 draw against FC Augsburg, some have recently called for a permanent switch to Jonas Urbig.
Lothar Matthäus, however, isn’t convinced. The all-time leader in appearances for the German national team is convinced that Neuer will remain the clear number one for the German record champions.
The 40-year-old also has the backing of the club’s sporting leadership. Before departing for the Champions League match against Viking Stavanger, sporting director Max Eberl once again made the hierarchy in Munich’s goal unmistakably clear.
