Bayern Munich has confirmed the are ready to sell Joshua Kimmich to Barcelona
In a big development, writer Florian Plettenberg has said that Bayern Munich is ready to let go of star midfielder Joshua Kimmich if the right offer comes along.
The German playmaker Kimmich, who is 29 years old, has been an important part of Bayern’s team for many years. This season, though, he has had some problems with his new manager, Thomas Tuchel.
Even though Tuchel is leaving Bayern soon, Kimmich’s deal with the club ends in 2025, and talks about renewing it have broken down.
Because of this, there have been rumours that he might be sold during the summer transfer window, which has Barcelona’s attention.
Barcelona has liked Kimmich for a long time and has been keeping an eye on him since last summer, especially since Sergio Busquets left.
Barcelona’s top goal is still to get a new pivot midfielder, and Kimmich has been named as a main target.
Barcelona is up against tough competition to sign him. Arsenal, Liverpool, Manchester City, and even Real Madrid, who is one of Barcelona’s biggest foes, are all interested in the German international.
Indeed, some of these clubs have already started talking to Kimmich’s agents about the chance of a transfer.
Meanwhile, the story says that PSG, Chelsea, and Manchester United are not interested in signing Kimmich.
Even though Barcelona still wants to sign Kimmich, the fact that other top teams are also interested could make things more difficult, especially since Barcelona is currently short on cash.
Several big teams are interested in Kimmich, which could make it hard for Barcelona to sign him, even though they need a midfield reinforcement very badly.
