Joshua Kimmich emerges as one of the top opportunities in the summer transfer market, with Liverpool, Manchester City, and Real Madrid keeping an eye on his contractual situation. The German midfielder, whose contract with Bayern Munich expires in June, could leave as a free agent, sparking the interest of the European giants.
Bayern has tried several times to renew Kimmich's contract, but the 30-year-old player has not yet made a definitive decision about his future. With the possibility of signing a pre-contract from January, interested clubs have already begun talks to explore the feasibility of a cost-free transfer in the upcoming summer market.
The 3 clubs vying for Joshua Kimmich's free transfer
-Liverpool: In the Premier League, Liverpool has shown a strong interest in the midfielder, considering his versatility and leadership as key attributes to reinforce their squad. The 'Reds' may be seeking an alternative in case of a possible departure of Trent Alexander-Arnold, making Kimmich's versatility even more valuable, as he can perform both in midfield and at right-back.
-Manchester City: Meanwhile, Manchester City is closely monitoring the situation's development. Although they recently brought in Nico González to bolster the midfield, Pep Guardiola is familiar with Kimmich from his time at Bayern and values his tactical ability and experience. The 'Citizens' could intensify their efforts in the summer to secure his arrival without paying a transfer fee.
-Real Madrid: Real Madrid is also closely following the outcome of this case. The club seeks to strengthen its squad with experienced and high-level players, and the opportunity to sign Kimmich as a free agent makes him an attractive target. Additionally, in Madrid, they have been monitoring the situation of Alphonso Davies, another Bayern player, although his renewal with the Bavarian club seems likely.
