Life and club career

[edit]

Jonas Kurt Urbig[2] was born on 8 August 2003 in Euskirchen in the German state of North Rhine-Westphalia.[1] His parents are Martina and Kurt Urbig, who played as a goalkeeper for the amateur football club TSC Euskirchen [de]. Having attended a try-out at 1. FC Köln,[3] he joined the club's youth academy in 2012. He went on to play for each of Köln's youth teams. In January 2023, he joined 2. Bundesliga side Jahn Regensburg on a loan contract.[4] He made his first professional appearance in a 2–0 loss against Darmstadt 98 and became Regensburg's starting goalkeeper. He returned to his parent club at the end of the 2022–23 season after Regenbsurg failed to avoid relegation to 3. Liga.[5]

In July 2023, the club announced that Urbig had extended his contract until 2026 and that he would join 2. Bundesliga club Greuther Fürth for a year-long loan spell.[6]

On 27 January 2025, Urbig signed a four-and-a-half-year contract with Bayern Munich.[7] On 5 March, he gave his debut in the Champions League round of 16, coming on as a substitute for Manuel Neuer, keeping a clean sheet in a 3–0 home victory over Bayer Leverkusen.[8] Three days later, he made his Bundesliga debut in a 3–2 home loss to VfL Bochum, although he was praised for his performance.[9] On 11 March, he made his Champions League starting line-up debut, in a 2–0 away victory over Bayer Leverkusen in the round of 16 second leg.[10]
