Bayern Munich and Joshua Kimmich will part ways either in this transfer window or next summer.

According to Bild, the 29-year-old German international will not renew his contract, which expires in June 2025. As a result, the Bavarians are willing to let the player leave during this transfer window if an offer between 30 and 40 million euros is received. For that amount, some "sharks" might move forward to sign the versatile footballer: Real Madrid, Barcelona, and Manchester United are at the forefront.

Currently competing in Euro 2024 with the German national team, Joshua Kimmich completed his ninth consecutive season with Bayern Munich in 2023/24. Throughout his time at Bayern, Kimmich has been a key player, known for his versatility, intelligence on the field, and leadership qualities. He has played a pivotal role in Bayern’s successes, contributing to numerous Bundesliga titles, DFB-Pokal victories, and a Champions League triumph.

Kimmich's departure will mark the end of an era for Bayern, as he has been a cornerstone of their midfield and defense. His ability to play both as a right-back and a defensive midfielder has made him one of the most valuable players in the squad. Bayern will now need to find a suitable replacement who can bring similar qualities to the team.

The potential move has sparked interest among top European clubs. Real Madrid, Barcelona, and Manchester United are reportedly leading the race to secure Kimmich's signature. Each of these clubs sees Kimmich as a strategic addition that can enhance their midfield stability and overall team performance.

As Kimmich continues to represent Germany in Euro 2024, his focus remains on helping his national team achieve success in the tournament. Meanwhile, the speculation about his club future continues to grow, with fans and pundits eagerly awaiting the next chapter of his career.
