Bowman: Neuer of 39 is still the contender for the best goalkeeper in the world, at least the top three in the world

Hupu October 2nd News In the competition for the German national team's No. 1 goalkeeper, Oliver Bowman did not think that Manuel Neuer would pose a threat to him. However, he believes that Neuer is one of the three strongest goalkeepers in the world.

Oliver Bowman is currently the main goalkeeper of Germany due to injury to main goalkeeper Mark Andre Terstegen. However, the 35-year-old failed to stop Manuel Neuer's name from being frequently associated with the German national team in recent months.

This is mainly due to the Bayern Munich goalkeeper who is still able to return to his best form despite being 39 years old. Bauman also expressed respect for this, and he highly praised Neuer in an interview with Bild. When asked if Neuer was the best goalkeeper in the world again, he replied: "He may compete with one or two people, such as Thibau Courtois. But he is definitely the one who sets the benchmark. Neuer is one of the top three goalkeepers in the world."

Bowmann was not only impressed by the sports achievements of the former German national team captain, but also by his personality. "We have a good relationship. I really appreciate him as a world-class goalkeeper who still maintains such a human and pragmatic attitude," he stressed. “Manuel is impeccable in terms of athleticism and personal qualities,” the 35-year-old added.

However, there is unlikely to be a competition between Bowman and Neuer. The Bayern Munich goalkeeper stressed a few weeks ago that he could not imagine returning to the national team.

Therefore, the Hoffenheim player did not go into the topic of public discussion. "Are there so much discussion? I don't feel that loud," he answered the corresponding question. In view of Neuer's denial, he declared that the matter was "over" for him. For him, there is only one question: "What do the coaches think?"
