Manuel Neuer is not ready to call time on his Bayern München glove story. The 38-year-old has penned a new deal with the Bundesliga giants, committing his future to the club until 2026.

"I still love playing football and want to continue as a player for FC Bayern," he said in a statement. "I'm still hungry and looking forward to another year at this special club. Our conversations have always been productive, which is a great feeling. It feels right – we still have many goals to achieve together."

Neuer made his professional debut for Schalke in August 2006 and was earning rave reviews in no time at all. By the age of 20, he had nailed down a berth as the club’s main man between the sticks, and he finished his maiden season with 13 clean sheets under his belt. Having thrust himself into the limelight, he set about carving his name into football history.

One of the most important matches in his fledgling career was the return leg against Porto in the last 16 of the 2007-08 UEFA Champions League. After keeping his team in the game with a string of superb saves, Neuer twice denied the Portuguese side in the penalty shootout to send Schalke through to the quarter-finals.

By that point, the Gelsenkirchen-born custodian was already being widely tipped to eventually become his country’s No1. Though even that milestone came even faster than he could have imagined.

Having already been handed his first senior cap in 2009, the same year in which he tasted European glory with Germany’s U-21s, he got his big break ahead of the 2010 FIFA World Cup™ when Rene Adler was sidelined with injury. The rest is history: Neuer impressed throughout the global showpiece in South Africa as the nation took bronze, thus cementing his place in Germany’s starting XI – a spot that he would make his own for 14 years.
