Bayern Munich star wants to leave but doesn’t want Chelsea transfer

Joshua Kimmich snubs Chelsea despite being open to leaving Bayern Munich next summer

According to Metro, Joshua Kimmich is considering leaving Bayern Munich and is said to be open to talks about joining other clubs. The likes of Arsenal and Liverpool are keen on acquiring his services, but Chelsea are confirmed to not be his option.

The German midfielder has one year left on his contract and is yet to extend his deal and the reigning Bundesliga champions are open to selling the midfielder if a satisfactory offer arrives.

The 29-year-old is one of the most prominent midfielders, and interested clubs will be desperate to have him at their disposal. He has been the most consistent player with his performances during his time at Bayern.

In addition, he is a versatile player who can play right back as well as defensive midfield. With his wealth of expertise, he can be a suitable option for Chelsea, who will be able to bolster their inexperienced team the next year.

Besides Liverpool and Arsenal, Real Madrid and Barcelona are also set to battle with the Premier League giants for his acquisition. And among these clubs, a few of them have already made contact with the midfielder.

Kimmich is a remarkable choice for Chelsea, who should also prioritise signing an experienced player because of his reliable addition and ability to offer more balance to the team, particularly in midfield. He is a highly competent player, and when you add such individuals of his calibre to your team, they always make a big impact.

The fact that he can play right back is much more intriguing, and that may be another incentive to want to sign him. However, considering their emphasis on recruiting players under 25, it is unlikely that the Blues will pursue signing him. Furthermore, it’s unclear how much Bayern will ask for the midfield player.
