Bayern Munich are negotiating a renewal with Kimmich, but progress is very slow at the moment. In the last few hours, Max Eberl, sporting director of the Bavarian team, has made Kimmich’s situation clear. “We want to give Joshua some time… and let him realize that Bayern Munich is the club he wants to continue with.” “I don’t want to have to convince a player to sign a contract, I want him to do it with full conviction,” Eberl continued.

However, MARCA denied the publication of the German newspaper. They claim that the Whites are not interested at the moment in signing the Bavarian midfielder
