Bayern Munich is considering recruiting a new defender again with Kim Min-jae's sluggishness.

European soccer transfer market expert Fabrizio Romano reported on the 27th (Korea time) 'Bayern is paying attention to the Jonathan situation until the last day of the transfer market'

Romano added 'If Kingsley Coman leaves the team, Bayern have been in fresh contact over the past 24 hours as they are likely to bring back Ta. It's a task to watch until the end,' he said, noting the possibility of Bayern recruiting another player at the end of the transfer market.

Ta is one of the main players who contributed to Leverkusen's unbeaten victory in the 2023-2024 season just before. Despite being 195 centimeters tall, he defended the defense at a tremendous speed. In the German Bundesliga sprint record, he also ranked second among all center backs in the Bundesliga with 34.22km. Based on the speed, the back space of the Leverkusen was tightly blocked. As he shows strength in build-ups along with fast speed, he is a promising resource as a starting center back even after joining Bayern if he maintains his skills this season.

Bayern initially sought to recruit other players, but the news had subsided over time in the transfer market.

The problem was the transfer fee. Bild said 'Leverkusen has no intention of reducing other transfer fees. Bayern feels pressure as a result of this,' he said of his current transfer situation. Leverkusen is currently known to want around 40 million euros (about 60 billion won) as a transfer fee for others, but Bayern reportedly offered 20 million euros (about 30 billion won). Bayern is said to be in a state of negotiations with clear standards instead of matching the transfer fee. Since then, Bayern and Leverkusen have not reached an agreement, and the possibility of recruiting others seems to be decreasing.



However, with the end of the transfer market just around the corner, Bayern is interested in recruiting others again, and a lot of attention is bound to be paid to how Bayern's transfer market plan will flow to the end.

If Ta joins Bayern, Bayern is likely to have some of its current center backs on the bench or leave. Currently, Bayern has a total of five center backs, including Kim Min-jae, Dayot Upamecano, Eric Dier, and injured Hiroki Ito and Josip Stanisic, and if other players join, six center backs will be located. If Itona Stanisic is not used as a fullback, there are too many main players.



The bigger problem is Kim Min-jae. Kim Min-jae played in Bayern's Bundesliga opening match following the last DFB Pokal game, and he was criticized by the German media and fans for making a fatal error in the opening match.

Kim Min-jae's back pass to Neuer was caught by Beamer in the 10th minute of the second half while struggling with opposition pressure against Wolfsburg. As the ball lost its strength and fell, Bimmer drove forward and passed to Mayer in the center of the box, and Mayer scored his second goal by lightly kicking it into the goal that Neuer had emptied.

It was a painful mistake for Kim Min-jae. It was a completely different mistake from the one he showed in the last game, and he exposed himself vulnerable to pressure. Fortunately, the team turned the tables again and did not lead to defeat, but it was true that it was a fatal mistake.

After the game, criticism poured out against Kim Min-jae. Various German media gave Kim Min-jae the lowest rating and strongly criticized him. Fans pushed even harder. Some fans commented on the rating article saying, `Kim Min-jae should not be considered well. He is for the sale of Asian uniforms." "We need to send him to the second team. need a new recruitment", "The conclusion that Tuchel excluded Upamecano and Kim Min-jae was correct..." he criticized.

In this situation, if another joins Bayern, there is room for the worst for Kim Min-jae, who sought to compete for the starting position after staying in Bayern this season. Moreover, Ta, who has strengths in speed and competition, is likely to be a strong competitor in the main competition because he also shares many advantages with Kim Min-jae.

More tragic news arrived for Kim Min-jae, who faced a crisis due to a fatal mistake in the league's opening game. If other's recruitment is successful, much attention is expected to be paid to Bayern's decision because it is not certain how much more opportunity Kim Min-jae will have this season.
