A change was detected in the transfer rumors of Kim Min-jae, who was likely to go to Manchester United (Man United) of the English Premier League (EPL). Foreign media are pouring in that Bayern Munich, a prestigious club in the German Bundesliga, participated in the match for Kim Min-jae.

Reporter Fabrizio Romano, who specializes in the European transfer market, said on his SNS on the 16th (Korean time), “It is known that Munich informed Kim Min-jae of their recruitment plan this week. An agreement on personal conditions is imminent.”

He added, “Negotiations between Kim Min-jae and Munich are progressing rapidly. Man Utd is still interested, but there is no result. The buyout clause (minimum transfer fee allowed for transfer) will be activated from July.”

After reporter Romano’s report, foreign media in Germany are also pouring out the news that ‘Munich participated in the recruitment of Kim Min-jae’.

Kim Min-jae, who jumped into the Italian stage at Fenerbahce in Turkiye in August of last year, played a key role in helping Napoli win the league championship following 33 years, scoring 2 goals and 2 assists in 43 official matches (35 league matches). Kim Min-jae also enjoyed being selected as the best defender in Serie A this season.

As Kim Min-jae performed tremendously, the number of clubs participating in the recruitment match increased. In particular, Kim Min-jae’s buyout clause will be activated for regarding two weeks from the 1st of next month, and is known to be worth 60 million euros (regarding 83.5 billion won). Since the price is rather cheap compared to top-class defenders, many clubs are ready to open their wallets.

Man Utd, which seemed most likely to transfer Kim Min-jae, is currently in a complicated situation.

Due to the current club sale process, I cannot move quickly. It is not easy to recruit Kim Min-jae because the transfer problem of center back Harry Maguire has not been properly resolved. Also, it is sluggish as it focuses on reinforcing the striker rather than the defender.

It is said that when Manchester United was unable to speed up negotiations amid various variables, Munich entered the war and began negotiations quickly.

Munich, the club representing Germany, won the Bundesliga last season as well and succeeded in winning 11 consecutive defeats. Jung Woo-young (Freiburg) played two games in Munich’s youth team in the past.

Munich are currently looking to reorganize their defense. With Matais de Ligt as the axis, Dayo Upamecano, Benjamin Pavard and Luca Hernandez protected the defense. Munich is trying to recruit Kim Min-jae following disposing of Pavar and Hernandez.
