Revealed: Kimmich's potential earnings if he extends with Bayern
The future of Joshua Kimmich's contract with Bayern Munich remains uncertain, but new details have emerged about his potential salary under a renewed deal.
Details: According to Bild, Kimmich's new salary would be €20 million per year. Additionally, the deal would include a signing bonus for a four-year contract. Bayern had considered reducing salaries, but implementing this with Kimmich seems unlikely given his excellent form and consistent availability due to his minimal injury record.
Meanwhile, Liverpool has shown interest in the German defensive midfielder. Starting in the new year, Kimmich will be eligible to negotiate with other clubs regarding a free transfer after his current contract with Bayern expires.
Earlier reports suggested that, despite his desire to stay at Bayern, Kimmich has been reluctant to sign a new contract. This hesitation is reportedly frustrating the Munich club’s management, who are expecting a clear decision from him in January.
Reminder: Kimmich has drawn interest from Barcelona and Manchester City. His current contract expires in the summer of 2025, and top clubs are eyeing the uncertainty as an opportunity to potentially sign him for free.
