Manuel Neuer received an unexpected gift before a press conference in Germany. A journalist from Guatemala presented the German goalkeeper with a Germany jersey featuring Neuer’s face painted on it.

The artist and fan created the custom jersey as a tribute to Neuer. The jersey was shown to Neuer before the press event, drawing an immediate reaction from the 40-year-old goalkeeper.

Neuer acknowledged the gesture during the press conference, highlighting the global support for the German national team. “It is very special for us when other nations support us. It is important for us to have fans from all over the world, not just from Germany,” he said.
