Germany's Bild reported on the 4th (Korea time) "Will Kim Min-jae be able to recover his physical condition in time for Bayern Munich's away match in Eintracht Frankfurt?"He was shocked by his foot in the last Champions League match against Papos and missed the training afterwards"
Coach Kompany said Kim Min-jae is available ahead of the match against Frankfurt. However, Kim Min-jae missed training again, creating a strange situation. In place of Kim Min-jae, Casiano Kiala and Philippe Pavic were in training. These are promising defenders.

Bild said "The absence of training was known as a precautionary measure following a bruise on the foot against Paphos, but there was also a minor injury to the shoulder."
Bayern Munich shouldn't overdo Kim Min-jae. This is because if the central defender is no longer lost due to the players' line injuries, the situation is bad. Dayo Upamecano and Jonatantha are likely to start the match against Frankfurt on the 5th.
If Kim Min-jae plays again, the nightmare of last season can be reproduced. Kim Min-jae suffered from Achilles tendon problems in the 2024-2025 season. Despite the injury, he endured the game, and his physical condition was at its worst. In the second half, he was sluggish without playing properly, and was pointed out as the main cause of his elimination from the Champions League.
The media said, "(Last season) Kim Min-jae's injury not only adversely affected his performance, but also caused him to lose the entire Club World Cup. "Bayern Munich excluded Kim Min-jae from training to prevent this from happening again."
