Germany and Bayern Munich goalkeeper Manuel Neuer has produced some of the most outstanding shot-stopping displays in modern history and is widely considered to be the best active goalkeeper on the planet.

Neuer began his career at Schalke as he worked his way up the ranks and made his debut in 2006 as a 20-year-old. The German tank as he as referred to played for Schalke for five seasons before making the move to German giants Bayern Munich in 2011.

Neuer won the German Cup during his time at Schalke, before going on to claim every award there is to win with Bayern Munich. Neuer was part of the German starting eleven that won the World Cup in 2014. Also that year, the German shot-stopper was voted third behind only Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo in the race for the Ballon d'Or award.

Having kept 169 clean sheets in 346 appearances so far, the 31-year-old is well on course to topple the all-time clean sheet record provided he stays in the Bundesliga.
