Manuel Neuer Retires from Germany's National Soccer Team

After 15 years and 124 appearances, the World Cup-winning goalkeeper will focus on his club career with Bayern Munich.

Neuer's last game for Germany was a quarterfinal loss to Spain at Euro 2024.
He was tempted to continue until the 2026 World Cup but decided against it after family discussions.
Neuer's retirement follows similar decisions by teammates Ilkay Gündogan and Thomas Müller.
Barcelona's Marc-André ter Stegen is expected to become Germany's starting goalkeeper.
Neuer's international career highlights include winning the 2014 World Cup and being named the tournament's best goalkeeper.
