[OSEN=노진주 기자] It is news that ‘oil money’ Newcastle United jumped into the race to recruit Kim Min-jae (27, Naples).
British media ‘The Hard Tackle’ first reported on the 18th (Korean time), “Manchester United (hereinfollowing referred to as Manchester United) will pay a buyout of 56 million euros (approximately 81 billion won) to recruit Kim Min-jae.” aiming,” he reported.
“Newcastle have the capital to pay 56 million euros. We will have a fierce competition over Kim Min-jae.”
Kim Min-jae’s stock price is skyrocketing this season.
Kim Min-jae, who transferred to the prestigious Turkiye Fenerbahce in 2021 following going through Jeonbuk Hyundai in the domestic K-League 1 and the Chinese Super League, wore a Napoli uniform last summer.
After one season of transfer, Kim Min-jae won the Italian Serie A championship. He appeared in 33 league games, scoring two goals and assisting the team to the top. With a solid defense, Napoli won the Scudetto 33 years following the 1989-1990 season when the ‘legend’ Diego Maradona played an active role.
Kim Min-jae’s performance is also recognized by Serie A. Kim Min-jae was nominated for the 45-man Serie A Team of the Year for the 2022-2023 season. A total of 13 players, including Kim Min-jae, are competing in the defender category.
While Paris Saint-Germain, Real Madrid, and Liverpool, which are aiming to strengthen their defense, are said to be eyeing Kim Min-jae, the atmosphere was leaning toward Man United as the front runner before signing. France’s ‘Foot Mercato’ and Italy’s ‘Tutto Mercato’ all said, “Man Utd wants Kim Min-jae passionately.”
However, on the 16th, an official from Kim Min-jae’s side said, “Although Napoli confirmed an early championship, Min-jae Kim is focusing on finishing the season well.” did not There is no need to move quickly at this time,” he said.
In the midst of this, even Newcastle, which puts ‘Oil Money’ at the forefront, is showing interest in Kim Min-jae.
The British media ‘Give Me Sports’ also reported that “Newcastle dispatched a scout for several weeks to look at Kim Min-jae.”
It seems to be a ‘war of money’. On the 17th, Italian media ‘Il Martino’ said, “Man United will offer 9 million euros (13 billion won), four times the annual salary Kim Min-jae receives at Naples. I wouldn’t be surprised if Kim Min-jae accepts the offer.”
If what ‘Il Martino’ said is true, it is calculated that Newcastle, which jumped in before signing Kim Min-jae, will have to spend more money.
In this season’s EPL, Newcastle is in third place with 18 wins, 12 draws and 5 losses (66 points) as of the 18th. Manchester United is 4th with 20 wins, 6 draws and 9 losses (66 points). If this ranking remains the same, both teams can qualify for the next season’s Champions League.
