Goalkeeping legend, revolutionary and football legend Manuel Neuer has seen plenty of life and football.
However, he believes there will never be another year as this in the game.
“There has never been a season like this and hopefully there never will be again,” he said to Sport Buzzer.
“Everyone involved knows that there is a lot at the moment. That is why communication with one another is all the more important – with the coaches, the doctors and physios and the players.
“Certain training types are currently no longer possible. We do recovery after the game, then a bit of tactics work, some final training, and then the next game is on.
“Small tournaments, forms of play and one-to-one training no longer takes place.
“We as players shouldn’t complain, even if we have reached the limit.
“We are allowed to play – unlike many others – and are very happy about it;Â you just have to look at the amateur footballers or take a look at other sports.”
Asked if the strain of the fixture list may have contributed to Kimmich going down, Neuer added: “Such injuries can always happen.
“It also existed before corona and will also exist when fewer games are on the schedule.
“The injury for Jo hurts us, of course – at Bayern and Germany – but we know him and know how motivated, conscientious and ambitious he is.
“So I’m absolutely certain that he will come back in his old strength in January. That’s the plan.”
