Joshua Kimmich: FC Bayern Munich is probably withdrawing the contract offer

FC Bayern Munich has withdrawn its slightly improved offer for a contract extension to Joshua Kimmich. The reason is that the midfielder has hesitated for too long with an answer. Apparently Kimmich, the captain of the German national team is, are available to offer from other clubs. At the moment it looks like the football professional will leave the record champions in summer. This is what the “” and the “”.

The background is that both sides have negotiated a new contract for months. First Kimmich’s content should be shortened. After all, the club had moved away and, due to the strong performance this season, made a new offer this season-to slightly improved covers. But the player did not respond and therefore the club withdrew it.

There was therefore no final decision in the personnel. The association and the professional are still under discussion. But following the logic of contract negotiations, FC Bayern Kimmich should not make an improved offer again. The personnel Thomas Müller is also open, and here too there is a decision about a new contract. Jamal Musiala, Alphonso Davies and Captain Manuel Neuer have already received new contracts.

Kimmich came to FC Bayern in 2015 and one of the defining players of the dominant phase of the record champions. During this time he did not become a German champion, it was last year when Bayer Leverkusen won the title. That means: Kimmich won the shell eight times and won the DFB Cup three times. He achieved the most successful year under coach Hansi Flick in 2020 when Bayern won the triple from Champions League, championship and trophy.

The fact that Kimmich will be missing for the first time in the South Derby against VfB Stuttgart for the first time the season in the initial team does not have to do with the contract negotiations, but is due to a tendon irritation in the thigh of the Bavaria captain.
