Bayern Munich in Negotiations With Fellow Bundesliga Outfit for Manuel Neuer Replacement

• Manuel Neuer was injured in a skiing accident after the World Cup break and will miss the rest of the season.
• Bayern Munich have been hunting for an established keeper to bring in as a replacement for Neuer.
• Borussia Mönchengladbach are willing to sell Yann Sommer if they bring in a replacement for him.

Bayern Munich’s search for a goalkeeper continues.

The Bundesliga side are in desperate need of a first-choice keeper for the rest of the season following Manuel Neuer’s injury.

Neuer broke his leg during a skiing accident while on holiday and was ruled out for the rest of the season, EuroSport reported.

Bayern currently only have Sven Ulreich and Johannes Schenk on the books as backups. As noted by Transfermarkt, Ulreich has only made three appearances this season. Schenk is only 20 years old and has yet to play a competitive game for the first team.

With their next fixture on January 20, Bayern’s hunt for a new keeper has now seen them turn their attention to Borussia Mönchengladbach’s shot-stopper, Yann Sommer.

Get German Football News reported that talks are progressing well between Mönchengladbach and Munich, but there is a concern over the club’s evaluation of the player.

Gladbach are asking for €5 million more than what Bayern are currently offering for Sommer. Gladbach doesn’t have a suitable backup keeper either and are trying to bring in a replacement before they agree to sell their star man.

Sommer’s record saves against Bayern

Munich is no stranger to Sommer’s talent. Earlier this season Sommer produced a legendary display when he made a record 19 saves against the Bundesliga champions. Munich threw everything they had at Gladbach, but Sommer stood tall, conceding just one goal as the game ended 1-1, SportBible reported.

Bayern Munich eye Croatian keeper

Croatia goalkeeper Dominik Livakovic is one of the top goalkeepers being considered by Bayern Munich to replace the injured Manuel Neuer.

Livakovic has been one of the top players at the 2022 FIFA World Cup, as his exploits with Croatia have taken the European giants to the semi-finals in Qatar.

The 27-year-old goalkeeper was the hero for Croatia after saving several spot kicks in the penalty shootout victories against Japan and Brazil, in the round of 16 and quarterfinals respectively.
