FC Bayern Munich has clearly signaled that it wants to reward goalkeeper Sven Ulreich for his valuable contribution to the team in crucial moments. In the last few hours it has been reported that the Bavarian club’s officials intend to move forward with the contract extension of Ulreich, who has proven to be an important asset in the absence of captain and first-choice goalkeeper Manuel Neuer.
Sven Ulreich, 35, has been experiencing a career renaissance since moving to FC Bayern from VfB Stuttgart in 2015. He was a reliable replacement for Neuer during his time at the Bavarian club, but it was in the 2017/2018 season that he showed his true potential. Neuer’s injury gave him the opportunity to occupy Bayern’s goal on several occasions and his performance was remarkable, helping the team to success in the Bundesliga and DFB Cup.

Although he is aware that his main role is to support Neuer, Ulreich’s willingness to take responsibility and perform at his best when required is commendable.
