No reason for Germany to drop Bayern's Neuer for Barca's Ter Stegen - Kahn

Legendary former Germany goalkeeper Oliver Kahn says he doesn’t think there is any reason for Joachim Low to drop Manuel Neuer for Marc-Andre ter Stegen.

The Barcelona goalkeeper has been vocal in his disappointment at being a perennial second choice at international level, with Bayern Munich’s Neuer having largely held onto the number one shirt since his international debut in 2009.

Ter Stegen’s excellence for Barca means there is generally plenty of sympathy for his calls to be given more of a chance – though Bayern have threatened recriminations against the national team if Neuer were to be dropped.
