Club career

VfB Stuttgart

Ulreich with VfB Stuttgart in 2010

He was Stuttgart II's first-choice goalkeeper during their first four matches of the 2007–08 Regionalliga season, keeping two clean sheets in that period. He played 10 matches during the previous season, receiving two yellow cards.

In January 2008, he was promoted to the first team of VfB Stuttgart. [2] But he also played again for the reserve team. He made his first team debut on 9 February 2008, in the 3–1 loss to Hertha BSC and earned his first victory as the starting goalkeeper on 16 February 2008, against MSV Duisburg.

On 6 April 2010, Ulreich extended his contract at VfB Stuttgart until the summer of 2013. [3] On 20 January 2012 he extended his contract until June 2017. [4]

For the 2015–16 season, Ulreich moved to Bayern Munich. [5] He had been at Stuttgart since 1998. [6]

Bayern Munich

Ulreich with Bayern Munich in 2017

Ulreich transferred to Bayern prior to the 2015–16 season and signed a contract until 2018. [5] He was on the substitutes' bench for the 2015 DFL-Supercup. [7] He finished the 2015–16 season with three appearances. [8] He finished the 2016–17 season with seven appearances. [9]

He was able to feature regularly for Bayern Munich during the 2017–18 season, due to a long-term injury to first-choice goalkeeper Manuel Neuer. [10] Ulreich started the 2017–18 season by playing in the German Super Cup. [11] Ulreich played a key role in guiding Bayern Munich to a record sixth successive German Bundesliga title, which was confirmed in a 1–4 win away at FC Augsburg on 7 April 2018. [12] However, Bayern Munich were eliminated from 2017–18 Champions League partly due to a goalkeeping error by Ulreich against Real Madrid in semi-finals. [13] [14] [15] Bayern lost 4–3 on aggregate. [13] In total, he made 47 appearances in the 2017–18 season. [16]

Hamburger SV

After Bayern had signed the goalkeeper Alexander Nübel in the summer of 2020 amidst much public interest, discussions arose as to who would be the backup behind Manuel Neuer in the future. [17] [18] [19] Ulreich therefore moved to 2. Bundesliga club Hamburger SV in early October 2020 shortly before the end of the transfer window, signing a three-year contract. [20] There, the 32-year-old immediately took over as the starter in place of Daniel Heuer Fernandes under new head coach Daniel Thioune. [21]

On 4 June 2021, Ulreich's contract with HSV was terminated prematurely. [22]

Return to Bayern Munich

On 27 June 2021, Ulreich returned to Bayern Munich. [23]

On 11 November 2022, he extended his contract with Bayern until 2024. [24]

On 28 November 2023, Ulreich extended his contract with Bayern Munich until 30 June 2025. [25]
