FC Bayern Munich, News: New details about Manuel Neuer’s skiing accident
Manuel Neuer had to be picked up by helicopter after his skiing accident. This has now been confirmed by a press spokesman for the Schliersee mountain rescue service. The Bayern professional was on the Roßkopf with a few friends – not far from his adopted home on Lake Tegernsee. Lanz Haberle told that Mercurythat an emergency call was received on Friday.
Neuer was on the icy and bumpy southern slope when he broke his lower leg. Three rescue workers first set out on snowmobiles, but the goalkeeper had to be transported by helicopter. However, that was not a celebrity bonus.

FC Bayern Munich, rumour: return? Alexander Nübel should set these conditions
It is currently unclear how FC Bayern Munich will continue after Manuel Neuer’s injury. One possibility would be to end Alexander Nübel’s loan to AS Monaco. Noisy ran.de there should already have been a first contact between the two clubs.

Nübel also wanted clear guarantees for the future. He is not available as an emergency solution.
“Of course we will calmly think about it,” said CEO Oliver Kahn table football and at the same time emphasized the great trust in Neuer’s deputy Sven Ulreich. Nevertheless, the record champion sees Nübel as the first option. Since his loan he has made 72 competitive appearances for AS Monaco.
