Manuel
Neuer wants to extend his stay at Bayern Munich with a move to Chelsea this
summer not an option at the moment, according to
Sky Germany.
Neuer and Bayern are yet to agree on the length of the Germany international
goalkeeper's contract extension, with his present deal expiring in the
summer of 2021.
Negotiations are proving difficult under the current climate with focus in
Germany understandably not on football with the Bundesliga suspended until
April 30 at the earliest because of the coronavirus pandemic.
The 34-year-old would also like to have an indication of the competitiveness
of the squad for next season before committing to a new deal.
The Bundesliga leaders have already agreed a deal for Schalke goalkeeper
Alexander Nubel to join them ahead of the 2020/21 season.
It's been reported that Chelsea are interested in bringing Neuer in as a
replacement for Kepa Arrizabalaga but a move to London is not an option for
him at the moment.
