Despite his successful reintegration into the starting XI under Nagelsmann, Neuer is adamant that there will be no further U-turns regarding his future. He is relishing his fifth consecutive World Cup appearance but is already preparing for life after the national team once the tournament in the United States, Canada, and Mexico concludes.
Neuer was emphatic about his plans, stating: “For me it is clear that this is my last tournament. I do not plan to be there in two years time for the next Euro. In the last days I have dealt with the fact that these are the last games for Germany. But I want to look forward to all the games and not to any goodbye shirts.”
