This season! Expert calls for Urbig to be Bayern’s new No. 1
Story updated
The story in brief
29-second readHow much longer will Manuel Neuer remain the number one goalkeeper at FC Bayern? Following the 40-year-old’s costly blunder in the 2-2 draw against FC Augsburg, the debate over the record champion’s goalkeeping future has flared up once again.
Former national team player Steffen Freund is now calling for a clear change of course: Jonas Urbig should be groomed to become the new number one before the end of the current season.
Last Saturday, Neuer made a costly mistake just eight seconds into the game, leading to the fastest goal conceded in Bundesliga history. The Bayern captain didn’t look particularly happy during Augsburg’s second goal either.
