Min-jae Kim’s future at FC Bayern is still up in the air. Two top clubs are trying hard to attract the South Korean World Cup driver. There should already be an initial trend. The central defender himself sees his future with the German record champions.
Word has long since spread to other clubs that Min-jae Kim is for sale at FC Bayern. Juventus Turin and Manchester United are currently considered possible buyers. Both clubs have thrown their hat into the ring, the ball is now in the defender’s court.
“It’s true that Min-jae Kim is on the list at Manchester United. But I’ve heard that the trail to Juventus is hotter,” explained “Bild” head of football Christian Falk to “cfbayerninsider” about the state of things.
Kim “enjoys” his role at FC Bayern
However, Kim’s farewell from Munich is not certain. “He enjoys his role within the club,” the journalist revealed, adding that the South Korean could live well with his status as a noble reservist in the future. It is said that he is not actively promoting a transfer.
What’s next in transfer poker? “Let’s wait and see what happens with Juventus. After that, perhaps United will open talks if things don’t work out with Turin,” Falk explained.
How much is FC Bayern asking for Kim?
It is not entirely clear how much the Munich team is demanding for Kim. There are contradictory reports here. Just a few days ago, the “kicker” reported a price tag of 20 to 25 million euros. Internally, according to “cfbayerninsider”, they are more likely to be flirting with income of 30 to 40 million euros.
What could become a sticking point are Kim’s salary expectations. In Munich, the World Cup driver collects a double-digit million sum per season. It goes without saying that he doesn’t want to move away from this and make compromises.
