The possible signing of Joshua Kimmich begins to generate uncertainty in the orbit culé and in the Bavarian surroundings. One of the first consulted on the rumours was Robert Lewandowski, the one who shared seven seasons with the mediocentro in the Bayern Munich, of 2015 to 2022.

For the Barça, the exit of Sergio Busquets forces to go to the market to by a pivote and, although the option number 1was Martín Zubimendi, Kimmich has done a gap in the last hours when intensifying the rumours on his wish to test luck in another club. The one of Rottweil arrived to the Allianz Sand in the summer of 2015 pertinent of the Leipzig and this great season 7 goals and 11 assistances in 45 parties, keeping as indisputable in the XI of Thomas Tuchel.

The Bayern begins to look for alternatives to Kimmich

Also they are on the alternative table like Declan Crimp (West Ham) and Mateo Kovacic (Chelsea), this last one of the men of confidence of Tuchel in his go through Stamford Bridge.
