Bayern Munich is close to recruiting a new center back.

European soccer transfer market expert Fabrizio Romano reported on his personal SNS on the 24th (Korea time) that `Jonathan Tha is moving to Bayern Munich.'

Romano agreed to move to Bayern, and Leverkusen also confirmed it. Leverkusen are waiting for Bayern to contact them for discussions on their participation in the Club World Cup. Now, he is Bayern's new defender, adding the signature phrase 'here we go'

Ta was one of the main contributors to the unbeaten victory for Berkugen last season. Despite being 195 centimeters tall, he defended the defense at a tremendous speed. In the German Bundesliga sprint record, he also ranked second among all center backs in the Bundesliga with 34.22km. Based on the speed, the back space of the Leverkusen was tightly blocked. He is continuing his performance this season as well. In addition to high speed, he shows strength in build-up, so if he maintains his skills, he is a player who is good enough to take the main role in European big clubs.

Ta initially received great attention from several clubs last summer as his contract with Leverkusen expired in the summer of 2025. Bayern were active. However, Bayern and Leverkusen failed to agree on the transfer fee, and the transfer failed. Since then, Bayern has endured this season with a combination of main center backs Kim Min-jae and Upamecano.

Once again, big clubs showed interest when it was confirmed that Targa would leave Leverkusen on a free contract in the upcoming summer transfer market. Bayern, Real Madrid, and Barcelona are also reportedly considering recruiting Ta as candidates. Among them, Bayern and Barcelona were the most active in recruiting others.

Bayern recently tried to recruit other players with the consent of its leadership. German journalist Flettenberg said on the 13th that the club's leaders want Tagah to be Eric Dier's top replacement. It's offering an attractive long-term contract, and all that's left is final approval from others. A decision will be made soon.' In the end, he succeeded in recruiting a center back with the approval of others.

If another joins, Kim Min-jae's position in the next season may change. Bayern will have three main defenders, Kim Min-jae, Upamecano, and Ta, when it recruits other players. Although the three players may share their playing time evenly, it is difficult to rule out the possibility of affecting Kim Min-jae's competition for the starting lineup depending on his performance.

Moreover, Bayern is actively considering selling Kim Min-jae this summer. Romano said there is a concrete possibility that Kim Min-jae will leave the team if there is a good offer for both Bayern Munich and the players. Several European clubs are aware of the situation, and Saudi Arabian clubs have also begun inquiries regarding the recruitment of Kim Min-jae. Attention is also focusing on how the recruitment of others will affect Kim Min-jae's future.
