Neuer signed a pre-contract with Bayern ca. two years ago. There were some rumours then and he suddenly started to speak totally differently about Schalke and Bayern since these days. But Neuer would have had big problems at Schalke if the fans knew, so Uli Hoeness promised Neuer that only the big bosses will know of the deal and that media and public will not be informed. What happened then? Coaches changed over the years, and suddenly Louis Van Gaal said, Kraft is the new number one keeper of Bayern as he is as good as Neuer. The fans were excited since they don't like Neuer anyway. But the bosses? They were speechless and totally angry about Van Gaal. Why beeing angry when a coach, who discovered a young goalkeeper named Van der Sar and a young keeper named Victor Valdez tells you, that you will save 25 mio euro cause he discovered another great keeper who is already in your youth team? Of course because you have already the deal with Neuer. Things went off. Fans went crazy. Van Gaal was fired. The interimscoach suddenly had to replace Kraft with Butt. And now things can go their way... Neuer publishes via Facebook that he will leave Schalke. And Bayern will present him as new keeper in the next weeks.
