I have to make the right decision for me, for the team and for Germany.“It doesn't help when you're rushing this decision. I want to improve day by day and I try to regain my fitness as fast as possible. “The steps that I already made were good and positive. I try to continue that way. Then we will see if that is enough.”Defending champions Germany will kick off their 2018 World Cup campaign against Mexico on June 17. They are also set to face Sweden and South Korea after being placed in Group F.It remains to be seen whether Neuer will play any part in those fixtures, with a man who was once considered untouchable for club and country suddenly facing fierce competition. Barcelona’s Marc-Andre ter Stegen has impressed again this season in the absence of an international rival, while Bayern Leverkusen’s Bernd Leno and Paris Saint-Germain’s Kevin Trapp are also in contention.</blockquote>
