Manchester United have been paying attention to Kim Min-jae since his Napoli days. I also made a proposal last summer. That interest can reignite. It's not just Manchester United. Italian Serie A Juventus and Inter Milan are also considering the possibility of signing.

Kim Min-jae recently talked about Bayern staying. He "I've suffered a lot in seven months. But I have no reason to leave. I hope to stay. Of course, we will have to watch the situation. I want to stay healthy next season," he stressed.

If Manchester United officially proposes to recruit Kim Min-jae, the situation could be different.
