German goalkeeper Manuel Neuer has announced his retirement from international football.
The 2014 World Cup winner was capped 124 times, with his final appearance coming in Germany’s Euro 2024 quarter-final defeat to Spain.
The 38-year-old Bayern Munich goalkeeper made his international debut in 2009 and featured in eight major tournaments.
He started Germany’s World Cup final victory over Argentina in Brazil and was named captain before the 2018 World Cup, a role he held until being replaced by Ilkay Gundogan earlier this year.
Gundogan also announced his retirement from international football this week, following midfielder Toni Kroos’ retirement after Germany’s home Euros.
Neuer will continue his club career with Bayern Munich, having signed a new deal last year to stay with the club until 2025.
