Bayern Munich and Germany’s star goalkeeper, Manuel Neuer, is poised to make a remarkable comeback to professional football after being sidelined for over 10 months due to a broken leg. The 37-year-old veteran suffered the injury while skiing in December 2022 and resumed team training in late September. This eagerly awaited return coincides with Bayern’s upcoming Bundesliga fixture against Darmstadt, scheduled for this Saturday at 14:30 BST.

Bayern Munich’s manager, Thomas Tuchel, confirmed the news of Neuer’s impending return, saying, “If everything goes well in training, then he will play tomorrow. He’s looking forward to it, and so are we. I’m certain many other people are also excited.”

Neuer, a World Cup winner with the German national team in 2014, sustained the leg fracture shortly after Germany’s disappointing campaign in Qatar 2022. The injury and the subsequent recovery complications kept him away from the pitch for an extended period.

Tuchel praised Neuer’s dedication and experience, hoping that he would quickly regain his form and contribute to the team’s success. Neuer’s return is eagerly anticipated by fans and football enthusiasts alike.
