"Bayern Munich moved swiftly in the winter transfer window to sign Jonas Urbig. The young German goalkeeper is highly rated at Bayern. He is currently the deputy to Manuel Neuer. Urbig stepped up in the absence of Neuer during crucial games last season. Apart from Urbig, Bayern also have Alexander Nubel on their books. The former Schalke goalkeeper has been excelling for VfB Stuttgart during the last two seasons."
""We haven't had any talks yet about how things will proceed. I think there's still some time. Everyone knows I'm under contract at FC Bayern, but I'm still on loan, and we'll see everything else in spring. I'm super happy in Stuttgart. Everything is going very, very well, and that's the most important thing for me." Alexander Nubel The strong performances at Stuttgart have helped Nubel enjoy silverware and get opportunities to play for the German national team."
Bayern signed Jonas Urbig in the winter window to bolster goalkeeping depth; Urbig serves as Manuel Neuer's deputy and covered important matches last season. Bayern also retain Alexander Nubel, who was offered a new deal in 2024 before returning to VfB Stuttgart on a two-year loan. Nubel is Stuttgart's first-choice goalkeeper and enjoys regular weekend football, silverware and national-team opportunities. The arrival of Urbig reduces the immediate likelihood of a vacant number-one spot at Bayern should Neuer step down. Nubel faces a decision next summer and has not ruled out a permanent Stuttgart move.
