Germany's TZ said on the 23rd (local time) that "Kim Min-jae played an outstanding performance despite the pain in the first half of the season" and that "he suffered from knee pain for weeks."," he reported.
The reason why Kim Min-jae's knee is not normal lies in the coach's tactics and playing time. If Kompany loses possession of the ball due to his tactics to pull up his unique line, defenders are forced to run all out to recover to our allies. Because of this, Kim Min-jae appeared to run in a sprint often, and eventually, his knee seems to have been strained.
The media reported that `Kim Min-jae showed a monstrous playing time. He played in 24 Bundesliga and Champions League games this seasonHe is ranked second with 2035 minutes after Kimihi, who played 2160 minutes," he said.
TZ praised Kim Min-jae for making a good record despite playing with injuries this season.
The media said, `As the figures show, Kim Min-jae's pass success rate is impressive enough to rank third in the league with 94.3 percent.' `Tackle success rate is leading the league with 62.8 percent.'", he explained.

It is contrary to teammate and central defender partner Dayo Upamecano's fifth yellow card against Leipzig last time out. Upamecano will miss the match against Borussia Mönchengladbach due to accumulated warnings.
Earlier, the British soccer column Breaking the Lines also highlighted Kim Min-jae's performance this season.
The media explained that `Kim Min-jae can praise tackle, aerial dominance, calmness in pressure situations, and is good at ball control, space control, situation control, etc.'
He also recognized Kim Min-jae's quality as a rear playmaker.
Breaking Durrines says "What really makes him stand out is when there is a ball. Modern football is demanding a lot from defenders, and Kim Min-jae presents a blueprint for a 21st century centre-back"His pass range is enormous.

Kim Min-jae had a constant fighting spirit"He does not seek the spotlight, nor is he intoxicated with individual honor.
