Bayern Munich no longer considers defender Kim Min-jae for sale, reversing their stance from the winter transfer window. Kim had previously been available if a suitable offer arrived, but he rejected several proposals, including one from former club Fenerbahçe. Now, he appears firmly integrated into Vincent Kompany’s plans for the upcoming season.

Kim joined Bayern from Napoli in 2023 for €50m. His strong performances, especially towards the end of the last campaign, solidified his position within the squad. The Korean international made 37 appearances during Bayern's league and cup double campaign. Kim's current deal with Bayern Munich extends until 2028, and he holds high respect among his teammates.
