Club career

Early career

edit

Neuhaus was born 40 miles outside of Munich and started his youth career with local club 1860 Munich.[5] In the semi-finals of the German youth league in 2016, Neuhaus scored the winner against Borussia Dortmund in a 2–1 victory, doing so from the halfway line in the 89th minute. The strike was named Goal of the Month by German broadcaster Sportschau.[5]

Borussia Mönchengladbach

edit

After impressing in the 2. Bundesliga in his debut professional season with 1860 Munich, he moved to Borussia Mönchengladbach in summer 2017 on a long-term contract.[5][6] He was immediately loaned to Fortuna Düsseldorf for the 2017–18 season, where his six goals and three assists in 27 second-tier matches helped Fortuna clinch the league title and promotion to the top flight.[5][7]

On 19 November 2019, Mönchengladbach announced that Neuhaus had penned a contract extension with the club lasting until 2024.[6] At the time of signing, Neuhaus had made 50 appearances for 'Die Fohlen' and had contributed five goals and 10 assists in all competitions.[6] He has gone on to play in all but two of Gladbach's Bundesliga outings during the 2018–19 season, and has only missed four league outings during the 2019–20 season, becoming a key part of Marco Rose's squad.[5] On 12 September 2020, he scored two goals as Gladbach defeated Oberneuland by a score of 8–0 in the first round of the DFB-Pokal.[8]

On 28 July 2023, Neuhaus extended his contract with the club until 2027.[9]

International career

edit

Neuhaus is a youth international for Germany.[10] He was called up to the senior Germany squad for the UEFA Nations League matches against Spain and Switzerland in September 2020.[11] He made his debut on 7 October 2020, against Turkey in a friendly game, while scoring his first goal as well.[12] On 19 May 2021, he was selected to the squad for the UEFA Euro 2020.[13]
