Bayern turn attention to Premier League

Bayern Munich monitoring Newcastle goalkeeper Nick Pope as a long-term successor to Manuel Neuer, with Pope's contract running until 2027.

Bayern Munich are considering Newcastle United goalkeeper Nick Pope as a potential replacement for aging Manuel Neuer, who is 40 years old. Pope, 34, has extensive Premier League experience from his time at Burnley and Newcastle, with his contract at St James' Park running until June 2027. The English goalkeeper has lost his starting position under new Newcastle manager Matthias Jaissle, who has preferred Lukáš Horníček, opening the door to a potential departure.
