Napoli is interested in bringing back their former defender from Bayern Munich

Napoli is aiming to execute an unexpected transfer this summer. According to Il Mattino, the Neapolitan club plans to secure the loan of their former defender, Min-jae Kim, from Bayern Munich.

A potential stumbling block for this move could be the high salary of the Korean player. The defender earns €8.5 million per year in Munich, and it is uncertain whether he would agree to a pay cut to facilitate his return to Naples.

Min-jae Kim joined Bayern from Napoli last summer, with the Munich club paying €50 million for the center-back.

Since joining his new team, the 27-year-old defender has played in 29 matches across all competitions, scoring 1 goal and providing 2 assists.

Earlier, we reported that Napoli's president is prepared to deter suitors for Khvicha Kvaratskhelia with an extraordinary release clause.
