Even if you do it, it's too much. The shocking price of keeping the team's rear firmly with patience even if the ankle Achilles tendon hurts as if it would break is a shocking decision to sell. The Bayern Munich club's callous decision makes me nervous. Kim Min-jae (29) was thoroughly betrayed.

Shocking reports have emerged that the Munich club has entered the 「Kim Min-jae hand-off process」. Munich no longer trusts Kim Min-jae's ability as a centre-back. After thoroughly abusing Kim Min-jae for two years, he is now willing to sell it for money.

Judging from the simple rumor, the weight of 'speaker' that broke the news is not easy. It is the same person who reported Kim Min-jae's transfer to Munich two years ago. Florian Flettenberg, a reporter from Sky Sports Germany who is known to be most familiar with the news of Munich, reported the decision to sell Kim Min-jae of the Munich club.

On the 15th (Korea time), Flettenberg said on his official SNS, `Now Kim Min-jae is no longer an untouchable player for Munich. Although the Munich club will not pursue an active sale, it is likely that a suitable offer will be accepted this summer,' it reported.

In other words, the Munich club will exclude Kim Min-jae from the list of 'No Sale' and proceed with the sale by looking at the market's reaction. The expression 'Doesn't push for an active sale' means that Kim Min-jae will not be hit by ransom. Munich intends to benefit from selling Kim Min-jae. I'm trying to get a new player with the gains generated here.

Flettenberg said, `If Kim Min-jae leaves (at a reasonable price), Munich will reinvest it. If that doesn't happen (= if Kim Min-jae doesn't sell), Kim Min-jae, Dayo Upamecano, Yosim Stanisic, Ito Hiroki and Eric Dyer will play next season as centerback options. Kim Min-jae's contract period is until 2028,' he added.




Munich's policy is clear. Currently, the team is full of similar level of centerback resources. All five mentioned by Flettenberg have experience as main center backs. It is true that restructuring is necessary. It is a waste of resources to have five main center-back defenders in one team.

The problem is that the target of this restructuring is Kim Min-jae. It can be seen that Munich no longer expects Kim Min-jae's ability. In fact, it is undeniable that Kim Min-jae's form has fallen significantly recently.

Making a fatal mistake against Borussia Dortmund on the 12th was a catalyst. At that time, Kim Min-jae completely missed Maximilien Bayer behind Dortmund when he crossed from the right in the third minute of the second half. In the end, the buyer beat Kim Min-jae and scored a header goal.




At that time, Kim Min-jae only watched the play blankly as if he was out of his mind. Even if it was not in normal condition due to body aches, back pain, and most of all, left Achilles tendon pain that had been going on since October last year, this scene was clearly Kim Min-jae's mistake.

Then, Bang Sang-Kompany, a former defender, left Kim Min-jae out of the game in the 9th minute of the second half. It can be seen as a reprimand replacement.

And Bayern Munich boss Max Ebbe also said after the game that `Kim Min-jae completely missed his markman from view at the time. Previously, he controlled his opponent well, but that one mistake allowed him to lose", he pointed out.

However, some say that it is too much to earn trust in Kim Min-jae just with this scene. This is because Kim Min-jae has contributed a lot to the team this season. It is true that he has always helped his team lead the league by playing devotedly despite the pain in his Achilles tendon.

However, the form has temporarily fallen due to injuries and overwork. However, Munich does not tolerate Kim Min-jae's temporary slump even though the contract period is three years away.

Kim Min-jae was the best center back in Europe two years ago. He won the Serie A Best Defensive Award for playing the leading role in Italy's Serie A Napoli.Kim Min-jae transferred to Munich for a transfer fee of 50 million euros (80 billion won). In November last year, CIES, a research institute affiliated with FIFA, ranked first in the global centerback rankings.

However, he did not enjoy as much glory as he did in Naples. In the first season of the transfer, he gave up the main position to Eric Dier, a former Son Heung-min teammate and a loan transfer from Tottenham.

This season, he returned to the starting center back with Kompany's trust. However, Coach Kompany also seems to be increasingly distrusting Kim Min-jae. Kim Min-jae can leave for a new league in the summer.
