Liverpool and Manchester City are closely monitoring the contract situation of Joshua Kimmich at Bayern Munich with the midfielder set to enter the final year of his contract this summer. While Bayern has yet to agree on new terms, they are reluctant to sell Kimmich this month. Both Jurgen Klopp and Pep Guardiola, managers of Liverpool and Manchester City respectively, admire the 28-year-old midfielder. Kimmich’s recent form under Thomas Tuchel has been questioned, particularly after a defeat where he criticized the team’s hunger to win.
Any move for Kimmich in January would likely cost at least £40 million an amount that exceeds the combined spending of Premier League clubs so far in this transfer window. Liverpool may have an advantage due to connections their sporting director holds with the Bundesliga. Guardiola having previously managed Bayern Munich is familiar with Kimmich from their time together. Kimmich has had a successful career with Bayern, winning numerous titles and accolades and is also an integral part of the German national team.
