On the 22nd (Korea time), Munich released the list of players on its official channel for Barcelona's away trip. At 4 a.m. on the 24th, the team will play Barcelona in the third away game of the European Champions League (UCL) league phase in 2024-2025 season at Cam Know, Barcelona's home stadium.
Kim Min-jae boarded a flight to Barcelona along with his main resources such as main gun Harry Kane, key midfielder Yozua Kimmihi and center back partner Dayot Upamecano. Striker Jamal Musiala, who has recovered from his injury, was also accompanied.
Kim Min-jae, who became the first Korean to join Munich, one of the "Big Clubs in Europe" and the "Big Club", will face Barcelona this season after facing Real Madrid in the UCL semifinals last season. It is a great opportunity to prove that you are a world-class center back.
This is the first time that Kim Min-jae, who is in his third year in Europe, will be on the Cam Know. As he has been a solid starting player under Coach Bang Sang Kongpani Munich this season, he is certain to start as Upamecano's center back partner in the game.

Park Ji-sung played hard to tie Lionel Messi (Inter Miami) in the away game of Camp Nou in the first round of the UCL semifinals of the 2007-2008 season while playing for Manchester United. Park Ji-sung played a key role in Manchester United's advance to the finals, but was excluded from the final against Chelsea in Moscow, shocking soccer fans.
Son Heung-min faced Barcelona, where Messi was active in the UCL group stage in the 2018-2019 season. There is no more Messi in Barcelona, where Kim Min-jae will face for the first time, but there is Ramin Yamal, born in 2007, who is called 'Messi's Advent'. Yamal, who led the Spanish national team to victory in Euro 2024, has scored four goals and six assists in 10 La Liga matches this season.
Kim Min-jae was in charge of preventing Yamal, who shakes up opposing defenders on the right side, Brazil's national team mainstay Hafinha, and Munich-born scoring machine Robert Lewandowski. Lewandowski has scored 14 goals, including the Cup this season, showing off his peak skills as if he has forgotten his age, which is expected to be a formidable match.
Munich will face Barcelona again in the UCL for the first time in two years since the 2021-2022 season. Munich has won all six of their last matches with Barcelona, giving them the upper hand in their opponents' matches. He scored 22 goals in six games and allowed only four. The 8-2 victory at Kamnow in August 2020 is still to be discussed. At that time, the coach who took the helm of Munich was Han Ji-flick, who now leads Barcelona.
