The only person who will save Bayern Munich in crisis is Kim Min-jae (29).
Munich's 'Iron Column'Kim Min-jae, who overcame an Achilles tendon injury by showing an amazing recovery ability reminiscent of 'Superhero', is emerging as a 'Real Hero' who will save the team in an unexpected situation. This is because while Kim Min-jae was recovering from his injury, news broke that his fellow defenders suffered major injuries one after another.
Kim Min-jae, who has just recovered, will have to fill this gap. German soccer media has already included Kim Min-jae in the starting lineup for the weekend's Bundesliga game. This is because there is no alternative other than Kim Min-jae.
German soccer media Kicker revealed the starting lineup for Munich's Bundesliga 27th round home game on the weekend of the 27th (Korea Standard Time). Munich will play the 27th round of the 2024-2025 Bundesliga at Allianz Arena in Munich, Germany, on the 29th. The opponent is Jeankt Paule, who ranks 15th in the league.
Although the opponent is a weak team, it is not easy to watch. In particular, there is only six points difference from Bayer Leverkusen, the second-ranked team in the league, so victory is necessary to win the league in a stable manner. Failure to secure three points against a weak team could make the last minute of the league unstable.

However, ahead of the match, Munich suffered a major loss to its power. Alfonso Davis and Dayo Upamecano both suffered major injuries during the A-match period. The two players were called up to the Canadian and French national teams, respectively, and suffered serious injuries while playing an A-match. Both are out of the season.
The Munich club said on its official website on the 26th that `Davis returned after the Canadian national team match, and the examination confirmed a ruptured cruciate ligament in his right knee and will undergo surgery. Upamecano is also unavailable for the next few weeks' Davis underwent surgery in Austria immediately after the announcement.
In Upamecano's case, a bone fragment was found in his left knee. This is a condition that causes pain. The bone fragments will be removed through surgery. He is expected to return to Korea in June at the earliest. The season out is certain.
In the end, Munich's defensive power suffered a great loss. Both are the team's main defenders. Davis is a left fullback and Upamecano is a center back. Two main players have escaped from Munich's backline at once.

The leading German media Bild includes Hiroki Ito, Hafael Geheiru, and Josip Stanisic as alternatives to Davis, but they cannot be seen as complete alternative resources. Large losses in power are inevitable' Upamecano is Kim Min-jae's center back partner. He started all 20 league games.
Kim Min-jae needs to find a new partner. At the same time, he has become the only reliable key player in the current defensive line. Kim Min-jae is also not in perfect condition. The Korean national team failed to join during the A-match period due to chronic Achilles tendon pain. However, he recovered faster than expected and returned to team training on the 25th.
Since then, as Davis and Upamecano's injury variables have occurred, Kim Min-jae's role has become even greater. Selection is expected in the 27th round of the league, which will be held on the 29th. Kicker put Kim Min-jae as a center back starter because there is no other option.
