According to Bild , Kim is no longer guaranteed a place in Bayern's first team next season. Coach Vincent Kompany wants to radically reform the defense after the failure in the Champions League this season. Many European clubs want to welcome the Korean player next summer. In addition, teams in the Saudi Pro League are also willing to pay high salaries to recruit Kim.

According to Sky Sports , Kim Min-jae is valued at 50 million euros and has attracted interest from Juventus, Chelsea and Newcastle.

In the 2024/25 season, Kim Min-jae disappointed with his inconsistent performance and made many serious mistakes, causing him to receive criticism from experts and fans. In addition, the Korean player's heart valve problem also worried the Bayern medical team.

Despite his impressive physique and good aerial ability, Kim Min-jae is not highly regarded by Bayern as a leader. The "Gray Tigers" defense is considered the main reason why the team was eliminated in the Champions League quarter-finals by Inter Milan.

Kim Min-jae joined Bayern in the summer of 2023 for a fee of 50 million euros. After 78 appearances for the "Gray Tigers", the center-back scored 4 goals.

In addition to Kim Min-jae, Bayern also wants to sell another central defender, Dayot Upamecano. The French star has not yet reached an agreement to renew his contract with the "Gray Tigers" and could help the team earn 15 million euros if he leaves.
