Bayern does not plan to actively sell Kim Min-jae, but is open to a transfer if it receives an appropriate offer in the summer. Bayern will reinvest if Kim Min-jae leaves. Otherwise, Bayern will plan for the next season with Kim Min-jae, Udayot Pamecano, Hiroki Ito, Dyer and Josip Stanisi as centre-back options.

The game that started was against Dortmund. Min-jae started in the 29th round of the Bundesliga against Dortmund in the 2024-2025 season at Allianz Arena in Munich, Germany, on the 13th. Bayern won a 2-2 draw, but the arrows of criticism poured on Kim Min-jae.
At that time, Kim Min-jae was perfect in the first half. It has blocked Seru Girasi, who has 15 goals in the league and 10 in the European Champions League. Kim Min-jae even covered the right side instead of Dyer, who was slow to judge. He defended the Bayern goal by blocking Dortmund's attacks that led Girasi.
The problem was the second half. In the third minute of the second half, Dortmund striker Maximilian Bayer scored a header. At that time, Kim Min-jae missed the buyer and provided an excuse for the loss. Fortunately, Munich, which allowed the first goal of the game, ended in a draw with a balance between Rafael Geheiro's equalizer in the 20th minute of the second half and Serge Gnabry's come-from-behind goal in the 24th minute of the second half, but criticism of Kim Min-jae's mistake flooded in.
Bayern's general manager also regretted his mistake. "It was a mistake," Max Eberle said in a post-match interview. Kim Min-jae missed his opponent in sight. Before that, he was dealing very well with Girashi. But I'm sure he's well aware of this loss himself."

He also played in this condition against Jeankt Pauli. You have to rest in order to recover.
Nevertheless, criticism against Kim Min-jae continued. Germany's 90 min German version on the 15th 'Kim Min-jae is a symbol of Bayern's failed transfer policy'Kim Min-jae's impressive performance in Naples. However, in Bayern, he was uneasy about running the ball, and his haste was revealed in his biggest advantage, aggressive defense. Rather, defensive efforts were more often counterproductive. He was also seen against Dortmund. Therefore, Kim Min-jae insisted that in recent years, it fits perfectly into Bayern's unfortunate defensive recruitment policy.
Since then, Kim Min-jae has been a target of major criticism, as he showed a disappointing performance in the previous Inter Milan match, and when Bayern was eliminated from the European Champions League, he attributed the cause to Kim Min-jae. There is a situation in which the possibility of a transfer is bound to catch fire. In this situation, Kim Min-jae's expected transfer fee has appeared, and more attention has been paid to the courtship of Kim Min-jae in the upcoming summer.
