There was news that Bayern could sell Kim Min-jae for the first time in two years, but at this time, Bayern was not actively willing to sell Kim Min-jae. If Kim Min-jae had an appropriate offer, he planned to consider selling it.




The appropriate transfer fee for Kim Min-jae, which Bayern wants, was close to 50 million euros (about 78.2 billion won) paid when Kim Min-jae was recruited from Naples. Journalist Christian Polk, who works for Sport Bild in Germany and is fluent in Bayern information, said, `Bayern is planning to go with Kim for now, but if a club wants to pay 50 million euros, the possibility of Kim's transfer in the upcoming summer transfer market will increase" he also mentioned.

Fabrizio Romano, a European transfer market expert who is also well known to Korean fans, also said three weeks ago that `Kim Min-jae has a serious chance to leave Bayern in the summer if he has a good offer for both the club and the players. Kim Min-jae is not irreplaceable. Many European clubs are aware of the situation", he explained.

English Premier League, Italian Serie A, and even Saudi Arabian clubs have begun to grasp the intelligence power to recruit Kim Min-jae. Despite various transfer rumors, Kim Min-jae denied the recent transfer rumors, saying, `I have no intention of leaving.'

But things have changed in a month. Now Bayern are actively attempting to sell Kim Min-jae. The reason is that a new large center back will be recruited. Now Bayern are very close to recruiting other players.




Sport Bild said on the 16th that the competition for recruiting another player is entering a decisive phase. For a long time, Barcelona was considered the most likely candidate for the next destination under Han Ji-Flick. Things have changed. The move to Bayern is suddenly very close.

Journalist Toby Altcheple, who wrote this article, said "Ta now has to make a final decision. Whether to approve it or not could come within this week or a few days. Bayern are all set. If he agrees, I think the contract will be finalized within a day or two"He explained that the rumor of moving to another company will be finalized soon." Unless Barcelona dramatically seal the deal, Tha will likely wear a Bayern jersey.

It is currently widely believed that Kim Min-jae will be pushed out if other players are recruited. Sport also reportedly said that Kim Min-jae has now been pushed out of the priority level internally in next season's plans. If he joins Bayern, it's him He analyzed that he is likely to play as a central defender with Upamecano.

If Tawa Upamecano is the main player, Bayern has no reason to leave Kim Min-jae. This is because Kim Min-jae's weekly salary is very expensive. From the team's point of view, it is better economically to sell Kim Min-jae, who has a high annual salary, when he can get a little price, and to recruit an additional backup center back. Bayern is so active in selling Kim Min-jae because it needs to make money in the transfer market to invest in recruiting Florian Birz.

What is shocking here is that Bayern even cut Kim Min-jae's transfer fee. According to Sport, Bayern now intends to send Kim Min-jae even with an offer of 30 million to 35 million euros (about 46.9 billion won to 56.7 billion won). Considering that Kim Min-jae's current ransom is 45 million euros (about 70.3 billion won) and he is a player who can target the Asian market, he will sell Kim Min-jae at a bargain price. It can be said that he is serious about Kim Min-jae's arrangement.

At this price, even Italian clubs that are not financially rich can actively participate. The key is Kim Min-jae's judgment. We have to decide whether we want to stay at Bayern and compete for the starting lineup in the world's best team. If not, it is possible to move to a new big club and head to a team that can be guaranteed a starting position.
