"I have always wanted to play at the highest level. I have considered this option throughout my career; I have always had requests and offers," Neuer tells Die Welt.

"But I knew that Bayern was the best place for me thanks to the environment and the squad. There has never been a club where I have had more fun. But you should never say never: I wouldn't move to Saudi Arabia or Qatar.

'If anything, MLS could be an option. I have spoken to Bastian Schweinsteiger, who played there, but you have to think it through carefully. In addition, they play a lot on artificial grass there, which is not ideal for a goalkeeper."
