🏆 Right from kick-off! Bayern star hits two milestones at once

The opening match of the new Bundesliga season has just officially kicked off. One of the players on the pitch is immediately reaching two personal and impressive milestones.

As expected, Manuel Neuer is in goal for the record champions – making his 600th competitive appearance for FC Bayern. At the same time, he is starting his 21st Bundesliga season.

As is well known, he moved from Schalke 04 to Munich in 2011 and has since become an absolute club legend.

During his time in a Bayern shirt, he has not only won many league titles and celebrated cup victories, but has also been able to lift the Champions League trophy twice. And that’s only so far. Who knows what other titles might still be added. After all, despite being 40 years old, he quite obviously still has a real hunger for playing football.

Still: those numbers are already more than impressive.
