The player is locked in a contract extension dispute with his club Bayern Munich
Berlin — Chelsea and Manchester City are reportedly interested in signing Germany captain Manuel Neuer, whose contract extension talks have stalled at Bayern Munich, according to magazine Kicker.
Germany’s top-selling daily Bild says Neuer’s agent Thomas Kroth has asked Bayern for a salary for his client of €20m a season. If the talks fail, club captain Neuer could be free to leave Bayern in June and attract the interest of the Premier League clubs. “It could still take weeks, even months, before a final decision is taken. Positions have so far become too hardened.”
Neuer, who helped Germany win the 2014 World Cup title, has been named world goalkeeper of the year four times. He has kept 191 clean sheets in 373 appearances for Bayern since joining from Schalke in 2011 and made 92 appearances for Germany.
