Inter Milan strongly want Kim Min-Jae.
On July 8 (KST), ‘Siempre Inter’, which covers Inter Milan news, reported, “Inter Milan are ready to sign Kim Min-jae if Stefan de Vrij leaves. The midfielder has attracted interest from Saudi Arabia’s Al Ittihad. Coach Stefano Pioli sees him as a defensive reinforcement option. If he leaves, Inter will look to bring in a player with a similar profile, and that’s Kim Min-Jae.”
“Inter Milan have tried to sign Kim Min-Jae in the past. They were interested in Kim in 2022 when he was playing for Fenerbahce, but he went to Napoli. He left Napoli for Bayern Munich, where he hasn’t been able to find a place since the second half of the season. There is a possibility that he could leave this summer. Inter Milan could offer him a loan and then pay a transfer fee, like they did with Romelu Lukaku.”
Kim Min-jae’s position in Munich is ambiguous. Last season, Kim was a starter in the first half of the season at Munich, but lost ground to Eric Dier in the second half. With the arrival of Hiroki Ito and the likely arrival of Jonathan Tah, the possibility of a transfer has been raised. On June 26, the German ‘Aventurer Zeitung’ reported, “Munich allowed Kim Min-jae to leave. If Jonathan Tah joins, Kim Min-jae will be a candidate for release. Munich is willing to sell Kim if the right offer comes in. This summer, Munich will tour South Korea and may be without Kim Min-jae,” the report said.
The German ‘kicker’, who has been critical of Kim throughout the season, also said: “Only the reliable Eric Dier remains. Apart from well-known 카지노사이트 sellers Matthijs de Ligt and Dayo Upamecano, Munich will sell Kim if the right offer comes in,” the report said.
This is where the Inter Milan transfer rumors came in. The idea was to sign Kim in place of De Bruyne, who is likely to leave. Coach Simone Inzaghi prefers to use a three-man defense, with De Bruyne being the leader, and it was suggested that Kim could fill that role. On July 7, Italy’s Gazzetta dello Sport reported, “Inter Milan have a big name in front of them. Munich is ready to let go of Kim Min-jae, and Inter Milan is ready. He could leave on loan,” reported Gazzetta dello Sport on July 7.
“The man who will strengthen Inter Milan’s defense in 2024-25 is Kim Min-jae. After winning the title with Napoli, Kim went to Bayern Munich. The move to the best club in Europe did not go smoothly. Now, Kim Min-jae’s move to Inter Milan is possible for several reasons.”
Florian Plettenberg, a reporter for Germany’s Sky Sports, said on July 8, “The rumors that Kim Min-jae is going to Inter Milan have been confirmed. Kim has no intention of leaving Bayern Munich. He wants to stay and has a contract until 2028,” and refuted the rumors. For now, Inter Milan’s interest seems to be active. The question is how Kim will decide. More transfer rumors are expected to emerge once the deal is finalized.
