Bayern Munich midfielder Joshua Kimmich told the media that he would reveal his decision to extend his contract or move away from Bavaria during a free transfer before the international break of March.
As was constantly paid, the current Kimmich agreement in Bayern expires in June. An animated queue of contenders of the whole continent has formed as the prospect of signing the captain of the German national team on a free transfer remains a reality.
Paris Saint-Germain has submitted an official written offer for Kimmich. The links with Arsenal have become cold, but Liverpool, Manchester City, Manchester United and Real Madrid are all interested.
Bayern Munich wishes to keep their midfielder well totemic, even if they withdrew their last offer after Kimmich spent weeks without meeting the conditions presented.
Speaking after Bayern swept the Bayer Leverkusen aside during the first leg of their equality of direct elimination of the Champions League on Wednesday, Kimmich told the media: “A decision will certainly be made soon. The ball is not in my court. My plan was to do so before the international break. The club wanted it before the two Leverkusen games. I notice that Max [Eberl] is honest and fights. “”
Eberl, member of Bayern at Sport on the Club, actively pressure to renew the Kimmich contract while the rest of the hierarchy is wary of paying a 30 -year -old man too much. Kimmich confirmed that “other clubs play a role” in his decision
“It’s not about removing the last euro,” insisted the player Ball. “I know Max [Eberl] is very honest and fights. I really appreciate that. Nor do I have the impression that I am totally greedy. It is not a question of deleting the last euro. Max knows it. We had very good discussions.
“My plan was to make my decision before the international break. The club did not want this, which is legitimate. I appreciate that they gave me a lot of time. It was important to take a good start this season after a difficult last season and to strengthen a relationship with each other.
“The club now wanted to have a decision before the two games against Leverkusen. For me, the injury has a little complicated, without going into detail. But there will soon be a decision. I don’t know if it will be between the two legs [against Leverkusen]But it will certainly be before the international break at the latest. “”
Bayern welcomes Bochum on Saturday before going to Leverkusen for the second floor of his last draw in the Champions League on Tuesday. The Bavarian final match before the international break is in the capital against Union Berlin on March 15.
