With Neuer out, Bayern still looking to sign a goalkeeper
Associated PressDOHA, Qatar — Bayern Munich coach Julian Nagelsmann wants a new goalkeeper before the Bundesliga season resumes next week. Bayern has been looking for alternatives for the injured Manuel Neuer, who broke his leg in a skiing accident last month, but the club’s search has failed to yield results so far. “We’re obliged to sign a new goalkeeper,” Nagelsmann said with a view to the rest of this season — either a new No. “If Ulle were to get injured, it’s a complex situation for a young player who hasn’t played a minute of professional soccer to stand between the posts for the second half of the season in which everything is at stake.” Bayern had identified Borussia Mönchengladbach’s Yann Sommer as an option, but Gladbach has ruled out an immediate transfer for the Switzerland goalkeeper.
