[OSEN=노진주 기자] Kim Min-jae (28, Bayern Munich) is rumored to be sold and kept at the same time. The person who will relieve Kim Min-jae, whose position in the team has decreased recently due to a disagreement with the coach, is the next coach who will be in charge of Munich next season.
Germany’s ‘Sport’ reported on the 10th (Korea time) “Kim Min-jae is not performing well yet in Munich. It is said that the reason is that his relationship with coach Thomas Tuchel is not good.”
At the same time, Munich hinted that there was a possibility that Kim Min-jae would be sold.
‘Sports’ said, “Kim Min-jae’s future is confusing. It is unclear what will happen to him after this season. According to ‘Sport Bild’, selling Kim Min-jae after one season is not a problem in Munich. “
Also, “Kim Min-jae once again started as a starter in the latest game against Heidenheim, but was responsible for two of the three goals he conceded. Now, voices are being heard around Munich branding Kim Min-jae as a bad omen. Munich paid a whopping 50 million euros (73.2 billion won) to Napoli in exchange for Kim Min-jae last summer. However, Kim Min-jae is unable to pay the transfer fee in his first season. “This is clear,” he added.
The fact that Kim Min-jae does not fulfill his ransom is an assessment that would be very damaging to his pride in the professional world where the money at stake is high.
As the media say, Kim Min-jae’s situation is not good recently. He was benched after Eric Dier, who wore the Munich uniform last January.
Recently, Kim Min-jae had a difficult opportunity to be chosen, but he did not make good use of it.
Kim Min-jae, who was excluded from the starting line-up for the UEFA Champions League round of 16 second leg against SS Lazio (3-0 win) on March 6, did not play in the end. Then, in the Bundesliga match against Mainz held on March 9 (8-1 victory), he was replaced by Dier at 30 minutes of the second half and barely had the chance to play.
However, Kim Min-jae warmed the bench again in the match of the 26th round of the Bundesliga against Darmstadt on March 16 (5-2 win).
Afterwards, Kim Min-jae joined the Korean national football team led by interim coach Hwang Seon-hong, played two international matches in March, and returned to Munich on the 27th.
Attention was focused on the situation of Kim Min-jae, who returned. However, he remained on the bench in the Bundesliga match against Dortmund on March 31 (0-2 loss). In the end, we couldn’t even hit the ground.
Kim Min-jae finally made a ‘full-time appearance’ in the Bundesliga against Heidenheim (2-3 loss) on April 6, but in the first leg of the UEFA Champions League (UCL) quarter-final against Arsenal which took place on April . 10 (2-2 draw) He was relegated to the bench once again. Dyer played full-time in place of Kim Min-jae.
Kim Min-jae was at the center of the ‘overuse controversy’ at one point as he started 15 consecutive games until the middle of this season. However, the recent positioning raises the possibility of selling.
Even in this situation, Kim Min-jae is said to be attached to Munich.
According to ‘Built’ recently, Kim Min-jae is currently a reserve player, but he feels comfortable in Munich and wants to establish himself under a new coach next season.
Kim Min-jae’s interest inevitably centers on what kind of person Munich’s next coach will be. Coach Tuchel will step down as coach of Munich at the end of this season. The reason is poor performance.
German media Bild reported on the 26th of last month that “Munich had a conversation with coach De Zervi, a candidate for the next head coach.”
Coach Dezerby took over as Brighton coach in the 2022-2023 season, replacing coach Graham Porter. Despite taking over mid-season, he gave Brighton a Europa League qualification spot in less than a year.
They are also on a winning streak this season. Brighton is in 10th place in the English Premier League (EPL) with 43 points from 11 wins, 10 draws, and 10 losses. They are 5 points behind West Ham who are in 7th place. Brighton are looking to progress to European competition for the second year in a row.
According to Bild, Munich have expressed serious interest in De Zervi.
However, if Munich wants to appoint De Zervi, there are hurdles to overcome. It has been said that a penalty of around 12 million pounds (around 20.3 billion won) will have to be paid to bring him, who is under contract with Brighton until 2026.
It is very likely that Munich will form a squad according to the intentions of the next coach. If coach De Zervi really comes to Munich and prefers Kim Min-jae to Dier, there might be a change in Kim Min-jae’s position. This is the direction Kim Min-jae wants.
