The 22-year-old, spectacular at times in the Champions League last season, will be out until mid-September at the earliest, after undergoing surgery.

Neuer will miss the first leg of Schalke's Champions League qualifier on August 12th or 13th.

The former Germany Under-21 player narrowly missed out on a place in his country's full squad for Euro 2008, with coach Joachim Löw choosing René Adler as his third-choice keeper.
