FC Bayern Faces Goalkeeper Dilemma Ahead of Gladbach Match
Injuries to multiple goalkeepers leave Bayern Munich potentially relying on 18-year-old Max Schmidt for Saturday's Bundesliga game.
- Manuel Neuer, Bayern's first-choice goalkeeper, is recovering from a rib injury and his availability for Saturday's match remains uncertain.
- Backup goalkeeper Sven Ulreich is unavailable due to personal reasons and illness, further complicating Bayern's options.
- Daniel Peretz, who had been filling in for Neuer, suffered a kidney contusion during training and is expected to miss several weeks.
- Peretz was hospitalized following the injury and thanked fans for their support, stating he aims to return stronger.
- If Neuer is deemed unfit to play, Bayern may have to rely on Max Schmidt, an 18-year-old goalkeeper from their second team and part of their Champions League squad.
