The start of one of the best goalkeepers of the modern era, who in 2014 was even close to winning the Ballon d’Or, should be almost a done deal. “If nothing happens in training, he will play. I am sure that he will soon get into the rhythm of the match,” said Tuchel, whose charges are third in the current Bundesliga table. They lose two points to leaders Leverkusen with three Czech legionnaires in the squad (Patrik Schick, Adam Hložek, Matěj Kovář).
The legend’s comeback after 324 days was decided by Tuchel after a six-eye interview, which was attended by goalkeeper coach Michael Rechner in addition to him and Neuer. The 117-time German international will put on a Bayern shirt for the first time since November 12 last year, when he helped to a 2-0 victory over then-premier Schalke.

But then the crisis period began. First, Neuer failed to prevent the unexpected elimination of the Germans from the group of the world championship, then he went on vacation to clear his head. However, he broke his leg in the lower leg during ski mountaineering and had to undergo a difficult operation. At the beginning of August, the doctors removed the strengthening screws from his leg, and from September, the experienced goalkeeper slowly began to participate in the training process.
