Bayern host Salzburg in the last-16 tie on Tuesday with a 1-1 draw from the first leg. Nagelsmann said Neuer could play and thus return to the field of play.
"Manu will be able to play, if nothing happens," Nagelsmann said in his pre-match press conference. "We are all looking forward to it. Everyone knows how important his role is," he added.
Neuer underwent knee surgery in early February and has worked throughout with the sole aim of returning to the Bayern Munich starting line-up as soon as possible.
