Bayern signs Yann Sommer from Gladbach as Neuer replacement

BERLIN: Yann Sommer will fill the gap of injured goalie Manuel Neuer after putting pen to paper on a deal with the Bavarians until June 2025, the German giants confirmed in an official statement on Thursday.

After a long back and forth, Bayern Munich eventually signed Monchengladbach's custodian Sommer, who replaces Neuer with immediate effect for the time being. Neuer suffered a leg fracture during a skiing trip back in December and will be ruled out for the remainder of the season.

The 34-year-old goalkeeper is part of Switzerland's national team, the "Nati", and showed his skills several times at the 2022 World Cup.
