Manuel Neuer will finally return to the pitch after a leg injury. It is expected that Bayern head coach Thomas Tuchel will start the goalkeeper for the match of the 9th round of the Bundesliga against Darmstadt, reports journalist Florian Plettenberg.

Due to a leg injury that Neuer received while on vacation at a ski resort, he was absent for more than 10 months.
