Joshua Kimmich appears poised to leave Bayern Munich either this summer or next year, as he is unwilling to extend his contract, according to reports.
The 29-year-old, currently under contract with Bayern until 2025, has shown no interest in renewing his deal, opening the possibility for a transfer this summer.
The report indicates that Barcelona, Real Madrid, Liverpool, Arsenal, and Manchester City are the only European clubs capable of securing the Germany international.
Kimmich, one of Bayern’s highest earners with an annual salary of approximately €20 million, could be too expensive for other potential suitors.
If a transfer is not secured this summer, Kimmich could leave as a free agent next year, causing a significant financial loss for Bayern.
This scenario means Vincent Kompany’s side might entertain transfer offers.
However, serious discussions are not expected to occur until after Germany’s Euro 2024 campaign concludes.
