Bayern Munich captain and goalkeeper Manuel Neuer could be sidelined for as long as two months, according to reports emerging on November 8, 2026. The 40-year-old shot-stopper, a cornerstone of both club and country for over a decade, is set to miss a significant stretch of the season as he recovers from an unspecified injury.
Neuer's absence leaves a considerable void in Bayern's defense as they navigate domestic and European commitments. The German international has been instrumental in the club's recent successes, and his leadership on and off the pitch will be difficult to replace during his recovery period.
