Britain's The Hard Task reported on the 28th (Korea Standard Time) that Newcastle has stepped up its defense next season and is paying attention to Kim Min-jae. Kim Min-jae's recruitment is expected to be this summer. The possibility of a release from Bayern Munich is mentioned, and he will take this opportunity. Kim Min-jae's transfer fee is expected to be around 40 million pounds (about 76.6 billion won).
Earlier, English Football Insider reported that Newcastle manager Eddie Howe is eager to reinforce the squad to perform well in the UEFA Champions League next season.
Newcastle are currently ranked third in the Premier League, so they are likely to advance to the Champions League next season.
Newcastle can specify the recruitment of Kim Min-jae, and Munich also explained that there is a possibility of selling players who have been pushed out of the starting lineup this summer.
Kim Min-jae played well for Bayern Munich and Italy's Serie A Napoli. Known as a fully proven defender.
Mick Brown, a former scout for Manchester United and Blackburn, commented that "as Dan Burn and Fabian Cher are getting older, Kim Min-jae is the ideal fit for Howe's defensive line." Newcastle may find a younger player in central defense, but they said they rated Kim Min-jae's experience higher.

Newcastle are also interested in signing Dean Huysen of Bournemouth this summer, but they could be pushed out of the competition as all the big clubs rushed in. It is a burdensome recruitment as there are predictions that Huysen's transfer cost may be higher than Kim Min-jae's.
Kim Min-jae's £40 million transfer fee is rather reasonable for Newcastle.
The media evaluated Kim Min-jae as a player who can show an immediate impact at Newcastle. Based on Kim Min-jae's strong mentality, he can play a decisive role in both the league and the European tournament. It is said that he can also stand out in games against big clubs.
Of course, Bayern Munich's intention to sell is the most important thing for Kim Min-jae's transfer to be completed. Munich is said to want to sell Kim Min-jae, who has recently made a series of mistakes and pointed out as one of the reasons for his elimination from the Champions League. If Kim Min-jae goes out, there is a possibility that Munich will not send him out as he also has to focus on reinforcing the defense. Kim Min-jae's transfer is entirely up to Munich's choice.
