FIFA World Cup 2026: Nagelsmann Stays Mum On Neuer's Return

By IANS News May 17, 2026 • 18:48 PM View: 172

FIFA World Cup: The guessing game over Manuel Neuer's participation in the 2026 FIFA World Cup continues.

While reports from Bild and Sky speak of a secured return of Neuer, Julian Nagelsmann stopped short of an explicit confirmation, though for the first time, he did not rule out a comeback for the Bayern Munich goalkeeper, after the 40-year-old announced his retirement from international duty following the UEFA Euro 2024.

The German national team head coach noted the final World Cup squad nomination is scheduled for May 21.
