Munich (AP) – Ex-national player Dietmar Hamann considers any consideration by FC Bayern Munich to the injured goalkeeper Manuel Neuer to be wrong.
«Even Yann Sommer was an interim solution. Now the time has come for me when you can no longer take it into account. Doubts about Neuer’s return are too great. And even if he returns, no one knows in what form,” said the ex-professional of the German record champions in an interview with “Sport Bild”.
“His ski trip cost the club a lot of money, possibly also sporting success. It’s sad that it could end like this. But as FC Bayern you have to get a seasoned goalkeeper now, »Hamann demanded.
Neuer broke his lower leg while skiing nine months ago and originally wanted to be back in goal for FC Bayern at the start of the season. Recently, however, there have been reports that the 37-year-old may not be able to play again until 2024.
Hamann would like Neuer to find his old strength again. “But I doubt it,” he said. The 2014 world champion had already shown mixed games before his injury. “It’s utopian for me that he’s coming back better now, after this injury. Bayern has to get a number one that gives the club three to four years of security.”
