Bavaria is looking for a defender worth 80 million euros instead of Kimmich

“Munich's Bayern club is considering the possibility of acquiring a new player to replace central defender Kim Min Jae. This was reported by Euro-football.ru.

The club currently has no intention of selling the South Korean player, but is ready to sell him if suitable offers come in. According to Bayern & Germany publication, the name of Tomas Araújo from Portugal's Benfica is being mentioned as a potential new defender for Bayern.

Negotiations with the 23-year-old player could begin in the coming weeks. If Kim Min Jae's current form does not satisfy the management, the club's leaders may decide to purchase a new defender.

The contract between Tomas Araújo and Benfica includes a buyout clause of 80 million euros, but the Transfermarkt website values him at around 32 million euros. Thus, Bayern is exploring alternative options to strengthen their defense and aims to add a new player to the team in the future.

The club's leaders and coaches are working on making the best decision to further strengthen the team's defensive line.”
