Manuel Neuer
Manuel Neuer, the German goalkeeper born on the 27th of March 1986, completed 244 passes at the 2014 World Cup. That was more than Lionel Messi, who managed 242, and more than Thomas Müller, who managed 221. Wesley Sneijder also finished on 242. Germany won the tournament, and its goalkeeper spent much of it playing like an extra defender.
How does a goalkeeper out-pass Lionel Messi? The answer begins in Gelsenkirchen and runs through a transfer that angered the fans of his new club. It includes penalty saves against famous names, long spells lost to injury, and a German word invented to describe one of his habits. It also includes a retirement from international football that did not last.
Gelsenkirchen, in North Rhine-Westphalia, is where Neuer was born and where he came up through every age group at Schalke 04. He received his first football at the age of two. His first match followed on the 3rd of March 1991-24 days before his fifth birthday. He attended the Gesamtschule Berger Feld, and his brother Marcel later became a referee in the Verbandsliga.
Jens Lehmann, a fellow German who had kept goal for Schalke, was Neuer's childhood idol. Neuer signed professional terms in 2005 and collected the DFL-Ligapokal that year as an unused substitute. He made no first-team appearances in 2005-06, though he sat on the bench several times.
Matchday 2 of the 2006-07 season brought the break. Frank Rost was injured, and the 20-year-old Neuer came on in his place. Rost was then surprisingly dropped for the match against defending champions Bayern Munich, and Neuer held them to a 2-2 draw. He played 27 league games that season, and people already tipped him as a future successor to Lehmann in the national team.
On the 5th of March 2008, Schalke met Porto in the first knockout round of the Champions League. Neuer made a string of saves that almost single-handedly kept his side in the tie and forced a penalty shoot-out. He then stopped kicks from Bruno Alves and Lisandro López, and Schalke moved into the quarter-finals. He was shortlisted for UEFA Club Goalkeeper of the Year as both the youngest nominee and the only Bundesliga goalkeeper. He was also one of only three Bundesliga players to play every minute of the 2007-08 season, and he ended it with 50 appearances.
Schalke finished eighth in 2008-09 and missed out on a Europa League place. Neuer's showing at the 2009 UEFA European Under-21 Championship nevertheless caught the eye of Bayern Munich, and chairman Karl-Heinz Rummenigge declared an interest in signing him. Schalke's new manager Felix Magath insisted that the goalkeeper would stay for the next season. In November, Neuer was the only German among five goalkeepers nominated for the UEFA Team of the Year, and he made 39 appearances in 2009-10.
For 2010-11, Neuer was appointed club captain. He led Schalke to the first Champions League semi-final in its history, against Manchester United. In his final season he also won the DFB-Pokal, as Schalke beat MSV Duisburg 5-0. On the 20th of April 2011, he announced that he would not extend a contract due to expire at the end of the 2011-12 season. He finished with 53 appearances, and his departure set up the most contentious move of his career.
On the 1st of June 2011, Neuer signed a five-year contract with Bayern Munich that ran until June 2016. Some Bayern supporters were unhappy that their club had bought a goalkeeper from Schalke. A round-table meeting with supporters' representatives took place on the 2nd of July 2011. It concluded that Neuer "would be regarded as a full member of Bayern Munich, who should be treated with due respect. Furthermore, hostility towards him should cease".
His play did much of the persuading. After a 0-0 draw with 1899 Hoffenheim in his first weeks, Neuer had gone more than 1,000 minutes without conceding. That broke the Bayern record for consecutive competitive clean sheets, which Oliver Kahn had held.
On the 25th of April 2012, Bayern met Real Madrid in a Champions League semi-final that went to penalties. Neuer saved kicks from both Cristiano Ronaldo and Kaká. Afterwards he explained that goalkeeping coach Toni Tapalović had shown him footage on a laptop before the match. "I learned that Ronaldo prefers to send the ball low to his left," Neuer said. He added that he felt sure Ronaldo would pick his favourite spot.
The 2012 final against Chelsea was played in Bayern's own Allianz Arena and finished 1-1. In the shoot-out, Neuer scored Bayern's third penalty and saved the first one, taken by Juan Mata. He could not stop the rest, and Bayern lost 4-3 on penalties.
The 2012-13 knockout rounds brought a run of four clean sheets against Juventus and Barcelona. In the 2013 final against Borussia Dortmund, Neuer made eight saves on the way to Bayern's fifth Champions League title. He won his duel with Roman Weidenfeller, conceding only a penalty to İlkay Gündoğan.
On the 30th of August 2013, Neuer saved the final penalty in the UEFA Super Cup against Chelsea, which gave Bayern the win and some payback for the lost 2012 final. On the 9th of February 2014, he saved a first-half penalty from Mesut Özil in a 2-0 Champions League win at Arsenal. Özil had attended the same Gelsenkirchen school as Neuer.
In the 2014 World Cup round of 16, Germany needed extra time to beat Algeria 2-1, and Neuer had to play as a sweeper-keeper against their counter-attacks. The label describes a goalkeeper who sprints off his line to meet opponents, often outside the penalty area. His speed and decision-making let his teams hold a high defensive line. At that World Cup, his readiness to come out also let teammates press deep in the opposing half, and he has been credited with changing the role of the goalkeeper.
Neuer was an outfield player in his youth, and he has said he could play as a centre-back in the German third division if he wished. Pundits praise his ball control and his accurate distribution with both hands and feet. They also praise his long throws and his command of crosses. In 2015, Gianluigi Buffon called him the best goalkeeper of his era in the air. Peter Staunton of Goal.com labelled him the best goalkeeper since Yashin, who remains the only goalkeeper to have won the Ballon d'Or.
German media have a word for a less admired habit. Reklamierarm, roughly "arm of objection", describes how Neuer instantly raises an arm to alert the referee to attacking moves in his box. Critics say he does it as a reflex, whether or not a rule has been broken.
The same boldness has a price. In the 96th minute of a 2018 World Cup group match, Neuer lost the ball to Ju Se-jong in the South Korean half, and Son Heung-min scored the second goal of a 2-0 defeat that knocked Germany out. In the 2024 Champions League semi-final against Real Madrid, he lost the ball in the 88th minute, and Bayern conceded an equaliser before losing 4-3 on aggregate.
On the 7th of April 2026, Neuer made nine saves and several clearances outside the box in a 2-1 win at the Bernabéu. It was Bayern's first win there since May 2001. In the return leg, he gave the ball away outside his area after 35 seconds, and Arda Güler scored a long-range volley. Bayern still won that match 4-3 at home and reached the semi-final.
Neuer made his Germany under-21 debut on the 15th of August 2006 against the Netherlands. In 2009, he won the UEFA European Under-21 Championship in Sweden, keeping a clean sheet in the 4-0 final against England.
In May 2009, he was called up to the senior squad for a tour of Asia. His debut came on the 2nd of June in Dubai, where he played all 90 minutes of a 7-2 win over the United Arab Emirates.
On the 17th of November 2009, one week after the suicide of Robert Enke, Neuer played his first home match for the senior team at the Arena AufSchalke. Twelve minutes after replacing Tim Wiese at half-time, a clearance he kicked hit Emmanuel Eboué and Ivory Coast equalised in a 2-2 draw. Neuer took responsibility, but manager Joachim Löw called the error "unlucky".
On the 4th of May 2010, René Adler dropped out of the World Cup squad with a rib injury. Two days later, Neuer was named among three goalkeepers alongside Tim Wiese and Hans-Jörg Butt, and on the 28th of May Löw confirmed him as the starter. Neuer kept a clean sheet in the 4-0 opener against Australia on the 14th of June. He conceded only one group goal, from Milan Jovanović in a 1-0 loss to Serbia.
Against England in the round of 16, Neuer supplied the assist for Miroslav Klose's opening goal in a 4-1 win. Frank Lampard had a shot hit the crossbar and bounce past the line, and the goal was disallowed. Neuer later admitted that he knew it was a legitimate goal but had acted to make the referee doubt it. Butt started the third-place game against Uruguay.
Germany won ten matches out of ten in qualifying for Euro 2012, and Neuer played every minute. In a 3-1 win in Turkey, he held a close-range volley from Hamit Altıntop and threw the ball to Thomas Müller, who set up Mario Gómez for the first goal. He then fired a long kick to Mario Götze, and Müller scored the second goal. He started all five matches at the tournament and kept a clean sheet against Portugal.
At the 2014 World Cup, Neuer started all seven matches and won the Golden Glove for the most clean sheets. He kept clean sheets against Portugal and the United States, and the 1-0 quarter-final win over France was his 22nd for Germany in his 50th cap. He conceded a late goal in the 7-1 semi-final win over Brazil. In the final, he collided with Gonzalo Higuaín at the edge of his box, and Argentina never had a shot on goal before Götze scored in extra time.
At Euro 2016, Neuer conceded nothing in the group games against Ukraine, Poland and Northern Ireland, or in the round of 16 against Slovakia. In the quarter-final against Italy on the 2nd of July, he passed Sepp Maier's record of 481 minutes without conceding at a major tournament. The run ended at 557 minutes, when Leonardo Bonucci scored a penalty. After a 1-1 draw, Neuer saved two kicks in a 6-5 shoot-out win, including Bonucci's, and was named Man of the Match. In May 2016, a LEGO minifigure series released in Europe featured him as the second of sixteen figures.
On the 19th of July 2017, Neuer was announced as the new captain of both Bayern and Germany after Philipp Lahm retired. Injury and illness then kept him away from most of the qualifying campaign for the 2018 World Cup, and from the 2017 Confederations Cup. He was selected for the 27-man preliminary squad on the 15th of May 2018, having not played since fracturing his foot for a second time in September 2017.
His first appearance back was a 2-1 friendly defeat in Klagenfurt against Austria on the 2nd of June 2018. He made the final 23 two days later. At the World Cup, he captained Germany for the first time on the 17th of June in a 1-0 loss to Mexico. Against Sweden on the 23rd of June, several saves helped secure a 2-1 win that kept the team alive.
On the 11th of June 2019, in an 8-0 qualifying win over Estonia, Neuer recorded his 37th international clean sheet and broke a record set by Sepp Maier. In November 2020, he equalled Maier's 95 caps against Ukraine and passed him three days later in a 6-0 loss to Spain. That was Germany's worst competitive defeat, and the first time Neuer had conceded six goals in a match. On the 7th of June 2021, against Latvia, he became the first German goalkeeper to reach 100 caps.
At Euro 2020, he started the three group matches and the round of 16 defeat to England at Wembley. He wore a rainbow-coloured captain's armband in Pride month, and UEFA investigated before confirming that it did not break the rules against political statements.
Qatar in 2022 made Neuer the first German goalkeeper to play at four consecutive World Cups. On the 1st of December, he made his 19th World Cup appearance, passing the goalkeeper record of 18 shared by Sepp Maier and Brazil's Cláudio Taffarel. Germany beat Costa Rica 4-2 but went out on goal difference after Japan beat Spain 2-1. It was the second group-stage exit in a row. Hugo Lloris reached 20 appearances at the same tournament and moved ahead of him.
An 18-month absence from the national side followed. İlkay Gündoğan took over as captain and kept the armband when Neuer returned. Neuer was named in the squad for Euro 2024 in June, and he kept a clean sheet in a 0-0 friendly with Ukraine in Nuremberg on the 3rd of June. He played all five matches at the tournament, including a 5-1 opening win over Scotland in Munich on the 14th of June. He kept clean sheets against Hungary and Denmark.
Germany lost the quarter-final 2-1 to Spain. It was Neuer's 124th and final cap and his 39th appearance at an international tournament, which passed Bastian Schweinsteiger as the German record. His 20 games at the European Championships are also a German record. He announced his international retirement on the 21st of August 2024, with 51 clean sheets in his 124 appearances.
On the 21st of May 2026, Neuer came out of that retirement and was selected in Germany's 26-man squad for the 2026 World Cup.
By the 2025-26 season, Neuer had won 32 trophies with Bayern. They include a record thirteen Bundesliga titles, the thirteenth on the 19th of April 2026, which matched the total of his former teammate Thomas Müller. Both of his Champions League titles, in 2013 and 2020, came as part of a treble, and no other goalkeeper has won the European treble twice. On the 23rd of August 2020, he won the second as captain, with a clean sheet in a 1-0 win over Paris Saint-Germain.
The Bundesliga clean sheet record stands at 224, and Neuer reached 100 of them in only 183 appearances, faster than anyone else. His 21 clean sheets in 2015-16 are a single-season high. He is also the only goalkeeper with more than 100 Bundesliga appearances to concede fewer goals than games played.
On the 21st of October 2020, Neuer recorded his 200th clean sheet for Bayern in his 394th match, a 4-0 win over Atlético Madrid. That put him past Sepp Maier's 199 in 651 games, with only Oliver Kahn's 247 in 632 matches ahead. On the 28th of August 2021, Neuer's 205th Bundesliga clean sheet came in his 441st match and broke Kahn's league record of 204 in 557.
On the 5th of March 2024, a 3-0 win over Lazio gave Neuer 57 Champions League clean sheets, level with Iker Casillas. He passed Casillas on the 17th of April with a 1-0 win over Arsenal. On the 17th of September 2025, in a 3-1 win over Chelsea, he became the oldest Bayern player to appear in a Champions League match, aged 39 years and 174 days. He passed Lothar Matthäus's mark, and also recorded his 100th win in the competition, only the fourth player to do so.
In 2014, Neuer finished third in the Ballon d'Or voting, behind Cristiano Ronaldo and Lionel Messi. He has won Best European Goalkeeper a record five times and the IFFHS World's Best Goalkeeper award a joint-record five times, alongside Gianluigi Buffon and Iker Casillas. IFFHS named him the best goalkeeper of the decade from 2011 to 2020, and he was named Best FIFA Men's Goalkeeper in 2020. Germany also honoured him with the Silbernes Lorbeerblatt in 2010 and 2014, and the Bavarian Order of Merit in 2021.
In November 2011, Neuer won €500,000 for charity on a celebrity edition of Wer wird Millionär?, the German version of Who Wants to Be a Millionaire. He is Catholic and supports a Gelsenkirchen-based Catholic social action group that campaigns against child poverty, plus a youth club there run by the Amigonians. He also founded the Manuel Neuer Kids Foundation.
In 2011, Neuer said that "it would be good if a professional football player came out because it would help others to do the same". At the 2018 World Cup, Mexico were fined over homophobic chants from their fans while Neuer had the ball.
On the 21st of May 2017, Neuer married Nina Weiss in a civil ceremony in Tannheim, Austria. A church wedding followed on the 10th of June at the Cathedral of Santissima della Madia in Monopoli, Italy. The couple separated in early 2020, and Neuer began dating the handball player Anika Bissel. Their son Luca was born on the 14th of March 2024. They exchanged wedding vows in Bolzano, South Tyrol, on the 19th of July 2025, after a civil wedding in 2023.
In April 2017, Neuer fractured his left foot in the second leg against Real Madrid, which ended his season. He fractured the same foot again in September 2017. After seven months away, he rejoined team training on the 20th of April 2018. He was an unused substitute in the DFB-Pokal final against Eintracht Frankfurt. On the 24th of August 2018, he played his first Bundesliga game in 341 days, a 3-1 win over Hoffenheim.
On the 14th of April 2019, he tore muscle fibres in his left calf against Fortuna Düsseldorf and missed six matches. He still returned for the 3-0 DFB-Pokal final win over RB Leipzig, a week after clinching his seventh consecutive Bundesliga title.
In November 2022, Neuer revealed that he had undergone three facial surgeries to treat skin cancer. He later worked with Angelique Kerber to promote sun cream. Weeks later, on a ski trip at Roßkopf on Spitzingsee in Bavaria, he broke his leg, which ended his season. He played again on the 28th of October 2023, for the first time in 350 days, in an 8-0 win over Darmstadt.
On the 6th of March 2026, back from a muscle injury, Neuer hurt his left calf again and was substituted at half-time. He missed the rest of the month, including the Champions League round of 16 against Atalanta Bergamo. Jonas Urbig shared the goalkeeping duties with him through much of that season. On the 4th of April, Neuer returned in a 3-2 away win at SC Freiburg, in which Bayern came back from 0-2 down after the 80th minute. It was his first match after turning 40, which made him only the sixth goalkeeper in Bundesliga history to play at that age. On the 15th of May 2026, he renewed his contract with Bayern until 2027.
