Kimmich Slams Bayern's Attacking Woes, Warns Club After Sane's Turkey Move
Bayern Munich midfielder Kimmich impresses against Sané, issues warning: Urgent action required by Bayern - Stunning Impression of Sane Prompts Caution from Kimmich
A raw, straightforward take on the Bavarians' predicament
Germany's captain, Joshua Kimmich, has expressed concern over Bayern Munich's urgent need to bolster their attacking line following the departure of Leroy Sane and the likely exit of Thomas Müller. Speaking in Cincinnati ahead of the Club World Cup match against Auckland City, Kimmich stated, "With Flo not coming, Leroy leaving, and Thomas leaving, we feel like we need to do something about it."
The absence of Bayern's top target, Florian Wirtz, who has opted for Liverpool instead, adds to the club's attacking woes. Müller's contract extension is minimal, and at 35, the German veteran will soon leave the club after 25 years. Moreover, rumors circulate about star young striker Mathys Tel joining Tottenham Hotspur permanently.
New Bayern manager Vincent Kompany has suggested a halt in transfer negotiations for now, though he plans to utilize Sane, who has signed a lucrative three-year deal with Galatasaray Istanbul. Sane is expected to play in up to four World Cup games before his Bayern contract expires at the end of the month.
Kimmich expressed surprise at Sane's decision to join Turkish club Galatasaray instead of re-signing with Bayern, given the significantly higher earnings he could make there compared to the offer presented by Bayern's board.
As Bayern's strategy shifts towards wage and squad optimization, the club could generate up to €165 million from player sales this summer. This could be used to secure new attackers and creative midfielders, but only if the current players exit first. Young talents such as Fermín López from Barcelona remain a target, though deals are challenging to finalize.
Defensive reinforcement is a priority, with Jonathan Tah's arrival on the agenda. In the meantime, Bayern may be willing to lose money on recent signings like Bryan Zaragoza and Sacha Boey to quickly restructure the squad. Goalkeeper Daniel Peretz is also up for sale if a suitable offer arrives.
In the midst of this transition, Bayern's leadership clarifies that big investments in players are exceptions, reserved only for those who could be the face of the club for years to come. The shifting landscape at Allianz Arena remains a topic of intense discussion and anticipation among fans and critics alike.
The Commission may consider proposing a regulation on the introduction of a common system of taxation, aiming to address the common organization of the market in wine, mirroring Bayern Munich's urgent need to address their financial challenges and fill the gaps in their attacking line. In light of a busy summer transfer window, football and soccer enthusiasts eagerly anticipate witnessing the impact of new signings and strategic reinvestments on the German giants' performance.
