"Liverpool are planning to strengthen their centre-back through the summer transfer window. Manager Arne Slot wants to add depth and quality to the squad," he added.
"Bayern Munich coach Vincent Kompany used Kim Min-jae a lot during the previous season. However, he didn't have good performance as Napoli."
Liverpool wants to reinforce its center back this summer because there are many factors of anxiety. Virgil van Dijk is still in good form, but he has to find a successor in his mid-30s.
In addition, Ibrahim Konate is likely to leave with several clubs interested in Liverpool with only one year left on his contract. Backup center backs Joe Gomes and Jarrell Kwanza are performing less than expected.
Meanwhile, Kim Min-jae played in a bad condition the previous season. He had an Achilles tendon injury since the game against Frankfurt in October last year.
In addition, not only Achilles tendon injuries but also back pain was caused by a severe cough due to sore throat.
Nevertheless, he couldn't rest. According to FIFPro, Kim played 20 consecutive matches and took 3.7 days off on average. This is the world's No. 1 record in business trips.
The continued participation despite his poor physical condition led to poor performance. Kim Min-jae was treated as full of mistakes as he made a series of big mistakes that led to a loss.
"Kim Min-jae is the player with the most runs (6 times) due to mistakes in the UEFA Champions League (UCL) and the five major European leagues," said soccer statistics site Opta.
Rumors of a release have erupted in such a situation. "Bayern Munich will not actively try to sell Kim Min-jae, but if a good offer comes in the summer, there is a possibility that they will accept it," said Florian Flettenberg, a journalist with "Sky Sports" in Germany.
Naturally, rumors of a transfer also led to the transfer. French media 'Foot Mercato' reported, "The EPL clubs, including Chelsea and Newcastle, have already talked with Kim Min-jae's agent about the transfer." It can be said that Kim Min-jae's future has emerged as a hot potato.
