Munich, Germany – Tuesday, April 15, 2025 – Bayern Munich will be without their captain and goalkeeper Manuel Neuer for their upcoming Champions League quarter-final second leg clash against Inter Milan at the San Siro on Wednesday, according to reports from BILD.
The veteran German international has been undertaking individual training as he continues his recovery from a calf injury.
While there was hope he might be available for the crucial European fixture, the latest update indicates he is not yet ready for a return to matchday action.
Neuer also missed the first leg, which Bayern lost 2-1 at home.
However, there is optimism within the Bayern camp regarding Neuer’s availability in the near future.
The club reportedly hopes to have the experienced shot-stopper back in contention either later this week or from next week onwards.
Neuer’s continued absence means that Jonas Urbig is likely to continue in goal for Bayern against Inter. The young goalkeeper has been deputizing in Neuer’s absence.
Bayern Munich will be eager to have their first-choice keeper back as soon as possible, both for their remaining Champions League campaign and their Bundesliga fixtures.
The exact timeline for Neuer’s return to full training and match fitness will continue to be monitored closely as they aim to overturn the first-leg deficit against Inter.
