Manuel Neuer
Major Achievements: 2014 FIFA World Cup, 11 Bundesliga titles, two UEFA Champions Leagues, five-time IFFHS World's Best Goalkeeper. Manuel Neuer redefined the role of the modern goalkeeper. A true "sweeper-keeper," the German legend became famous for venturing out of his box to command the defense and play with his feet. While he wasn’t the first to adopt this style, Neuer’s unmatched athleticism, cat-like reflexes, and world-class shot-stopping abilities elevated the position to new heights, setting the blueprint for future greats like Ederson to follow.
