May 15 (UPI) -- Bayern Munich signed veteran goalie Manuel Neuer to a one-year contract extension, the German Bundesliga soccer franchise announced Friday.
"I'm absolutely delighted," Neuer told FCBayern.com. "It took me a while to make up my mind. I just wanted to take my time with this, because it's a very important decision, first and foremost for me, but of course also for the club and for our team. Now, I'm convinced it's the right decision."
Fellow Reds goalie Sven Ulreich also agreed to a one-year extension, which will keep the duo under contract through the 2026-27 campaign.
"We've got a fantastic squad with a brilliant coaching team, and it's great fun every day, not least within our goalkeeping team," Ulreich said. "It's wonderful to see how everything keeps developing, and I'm sure we'll be in with a chance of achieving everything again next season."
