'Don't come out for a while and rest.'

Bayern Munich coach Bang Sang Kompany has given Kim Min-jae, who has devoted himself all season as the team's starting center back, a sweet vacation. He ordered them to rest and not play in the remaining Bundesliga games. It is Kompany's decision after confirming the league championship. In other words, Kim Min-jae had a delicious break. But you can't just rest. This break is a 'breathtaking' to play in more important games.

German media TZ reported on the 8th (Korea time) 'Kompany decided to give Kim Min-jae a break until the end of the season' The background of this decision is deeply linked to the situation of the Munich defensive line, which turned complicated at the end of the season.

Munich drew 3-3 against Leipzig in the 32nd round of the Bundesliga in the 2024-2025 season. Until then, it was not 'confirmed victory'. However, second-place Leverkusen tied Freiburg 2-2 on the 5th, confirming the championship with two games left in the league. It is Munich's 34th career league championship in two years.

When the lingering effects of the victory were slightly gone, Kompany announced a surprise decision. The plan is to not allow main center back Kim Min-jae to play in the remaining two games of the season.

In response, TZ said, "'Kim Min-jae had Achilles tendon and foot injuries, and Coach Kompany decided to give him a break' and added, "'Kim Min-jae will help Munich win the Club World Cup in the future' and 'Eric Dyer's transfer (AS Monaco), Hiroki Ito's injury, and Dayo Upamecano's uncertain return date caused problems in Munich's defense composition. Therefore, Kim Min-jae, who has recovered his health from the Club World Cup, may be desperately neededIt was stated that '




In the end, Kim Min-jae was recognized again by Kompany as an `important power' and forced to rest. Kim Min-jae did not earn the trust of Thomas Tuchel in his first season when he joined Munich last season. He was selected as the league's best defender after giving Serie A Napoli the championship, but Tuchel did not recognize Kim Min-jae. In the end, he was humiliated by Dyer in the main competition.

However, Coach Kompany, who was newly appointed this season, quickly recognized the value of Kim Min-jae as a former defender. In the end, Kim Min-jae played devotedly as the team's main center back from the beginning of the season. In the end, Munich led the league from the beginning and finally won the league.

However, Kim Min-jae's dedicated play became more poisonous to himself as he went back. As he continued to play with the Achilles tendon injury that occurred around October last year, he became full at the end of the season. Kim Min-jae did not express this pain. However, mistakes have often been made in the play and have been the subject of criticism.

It was an absolute time to take a break, but I couldn't rest until the league championship was confirmed. Kim Min-jae couldn't rest more when Upamecano and Ito collapsed with injuries equivalent to a season out due to major injuries.

Director Kompany is also aware of this ironic situation. Therefore, he is trying to give a break to Kim Min-jae, who has achieved the fruits of winning the league. This is the result of acknowledging that Kim Min-jae's strength is absolutely necessary to win another Club World Cup. Now Kim Min-jae is Munich's 'true iron pillar'. If he falls out, the defensive line just collapses. Attention is focusing on whether Kim Min-jae will lead the team to victory in the Club World Cup.
