Tottenham Hotspur want Bayern Munich star Kim Min-jae


Tottenham Hotspur are interested in signing Kim Min-jae from Bayern Munich in the summer transfer window, according to Football Insider. The 29-year-old South Korea international central defender has been on the books of Spurs since the summer of 2023 and is under contract at the defending Bundesliga champions until the summer of 2028.

Journalist Pete O’Rourke said on the Transfer Insider podcast: “Yeah, I think I’m sure Tottenham are probably among a number of clubs looking at Kim’s long term future Bayern Munich.

“He has struggled to hold down a regular place in the starting XI at Bayern.

“They’ve got Dayot Upamecano and Jonathan Tah as the preferred centre-back pairing, so Kim has found himself the third choice in Vincent Kompany’s plans.

“There’s been talk that Bayern could be in the market for a new centre-back in the summer as well, so that would just push him even further down the pecking order.

“It’s going to be an interesting summer for Tottenham, they’re desperate to get out of this relegation fight and improve their squad for the coming seasons.

Kim, I think, has got all the attributes to be a success in the Premier League. He’s strong, quick and his physicality would be suited to the Premier League.

“I think Tottenham might need to do some convincing to sign Kim, especially if they find themselves out of Europe next year.

“It’s a tough deal to do, and there are a number of clubs who will be looking at Kim’s situation at Bayern, especially if he decides he wants to move on.”
