According to a media report, a commitment from South Korean defender Min-Jae Kim to FC Bayern is in the offing.
As the “Kicker” reported at the weekend, there was a first meeting between Munich and the 26-year-old’s advisors from the Italian champions SSC Naples. This went positively. The “tz” also reported on the first talks. Kim is said to have a release clause at Napoli. The Spanish national player Pau Torres from FC Villarreal is also traded at Bayern as a possible newcomer.
Kim and Torres could replace Frenchman Lucas Hernández in central defence, who is said to have requested a change at Bayern this summer. “I also heard that Paris Saint-Germain is courting him. We would like to keep him with us, but now we have to see what the transfer summer brings,” said club president Herbert Hainer on Sky about Hernández.
Bayern’s possible interest in West Ham United’s English midfielder Declan Rice was also recently reported. The 24-year-old is reportedly facing a move to Arsenal. “Declan Rice is not on our list,” said Hainer about the personnel.
When asked about the profile when looking for a striker and Munich’s possible interest in German international Kai Havertz from Chelsea, the Bayern president replied in general: “We’re looking for a nine, that’s certainly no secret. Unfortunately, it’s not that easy because it There aren’t that many and the ones that exist and are really great are also adored by other clubs. But FC Bayern has a great name.”
