Local reports said Kim Min-jae (Bayern Munich), who couldn't even sit on the bench despite no special reason, such as recent injuries, wants to stay on the team "despite this."

Bayern & Money, a media outlet that delivers the news of Bayern Munich, quoted Christian Folt and Julian Agardi of Bild, Germany, on the 13th (Korea time) and said, "Kim Min-jae is currently accepting the role of a 'challenger' and is satisfied with it."

The media said, "Even the recent decision to be excluded from the entry against Hoffenheim failed to shake Kim Min-jae. Kim Min-jae still feels comfortable in Bayern Munich, and despite the interest of the English Premier League (EPL) clubs, the player himself does not demand a transfer.

Earlier, Kim Min-jae was not even listed on the replacement list without any special reason in the 21st round of the German Bundesliga against Hoffenheim on the 9th. Three days later, he returned to the substitution list against Leipzig in the quarterfinals of the German Football Association (DFB) Pokal, but failed to play. It is the first time Kim Min-jae has missed two consecutive official games since August and September last year at the beginning of the season.

Dayo Upamecano and Yonathan Ta are firmly guarding Bayern Munich's main defense, and recently even Japanese defender Hiroki Ito is receiving opportunities ahead of Kim Min-jae. In fact, he has been pushed back to the backup center back, but local reports say Kim Min-jae is trying to remain in the team and compete rather than push for a transfer.

Kim Min-jae does not seem to be willing to transfer despite the EPL club's love calls, which have been steadily raised, including last winter's transfer market. The media added, "The club, not the player, is also thinking more about the possibility of Kim Min-jae's transfer this summer." "If a proposal for Kim Min-jae comes in the summer transfer market, Bayern Munich is ready to consider it."

In the end, Bayern Munich is ready to accept Kim Min-jae's break-up if it is an appropriate transfer fee offer. On top of that, if Kim Min-jae's willingness to transfer is strong, the possibility of leaving Bayern Munich this summer and taking on new challenges such as EPL could increase that much. However, despite the recent shock exclusion of the entry, local analysts say that Kim Min-jae has no will to transfer. The contract between Kim Min-jae and Bayern Munich is due in June 2028.
