Bayern are on it: Will he be the new Manuel Neuer?
FC Bayern are apparently in talks with Cologne goalkeeper Jonas Urbig. According to the German newspaper "Bild", Munich are said to have been keeping a close eye on the Germany U21 team keeper last season.
Kronen Zeitung als bevorzugte Google-Quelle hinzufügen Bayern's number one goalkeeper is still Manuel Neuer. However, it is also clear that at 38, the Gelsenkirchen native is one of the older players in world soccer, and sooner or later the German record champions will have to prepare for a future without Neuer.
Is Urbig someone who can fill the shoes? The 21-year-old, who was loaned out to Greuther Fürth last season, played his way back to being a regular keeper in Cologne. At Bayern, Urbig would probably have to line up behind Neuer, Sven Ulreich, Daniel Peretz and, from 2026, Alexander Nübel, but the young goalkeeper is already said to have great potential.
Escape from new arrival?
Alternatively, Alisson Becker is also said to be on Munich's wish list. With Liverpool FC set to strengthen their squad next summer in the person of Giorgi Mamardashvili, the Brazilian will probably have to look around for alternatives. Will the 32-year-old find what he is looking for in Munich?
