Bayern Munich legend Manuel Neuer unfazed by the arrival of young keeper Alexander Nubel

Bayern Munich recently completed the signing of 23-year-old goalkeeper Alexander Nübel from Schalke. However, Bayern Munich's first-choice goalkeeper and legend - Manuel Neuer - is not concerned about losing his spot to Nubel. Neuer has been the backbone of Bayern Munich since the time he joined the giants of Germany in 2011. Manuel, while talking about Alex, stated that, “Alex is a top goalkeeper who also perhaps belongs to the future. But it doesn’t play any role for me that he’s coming to Bayern.” Neuer is optimistic about his role in Bayern Munich and he has stated that every rumour surrounding Nubel taking his place is irrelevant.

Anyone else can do what they want."
