Radical turn in the Kimmich case: Joshua would be exploring his arrival at Real Madrid!

The future of Joshua Kimmich could lead to Spanish football. Although FC Barcelona has been mentioned a lot as a possible destination, it seems like his arrival in LaLiga EA Sports would not be at that specific club. The Catalan team has been closely monitoring the Rottweil native for some time with the intention of acquiring his services, especially considering the presence of his former coach at Bayern Munich and the German national team, Hansi Flick, in the Barça team.

In a total turn of events, as reported from Germany, Kimmich would have already initiated preliminary talks with Real Madrid to explore a possible union as a free agent in the upcoming summer transfer market, given that his contract with Bayern Munich ends on June 30, 2025. Additionally, it is worth remembering that Joshua, under FIFA regulations, is free to negotiate his signing with any other club starting from January 1.

From 'BILD', it is indicated that Kimmich would be open to joining Real Madrid, primarily motivated by the sporting opportunities they would offer him, especially the chance to regularly compete in the UEFA Champions League. This information comes at a difficult time for the Munich side, which recently suffered a 3-0 defeat against Feyenoord in the Champions League.

Bayern Munich still hopes to renew Kimmich's contract

Despite this, the sports management of Bayern Munich, led by Max Eberl and Christoph Freund, is working to extend Kimmich's contract. Even the Bavarians have priority in the negotiations, with an extension not being an unrealistic scenario.

However, Real Madrid's interest, as well as that of other clubs like FC Barcelona or Manchester City, raises the possibility of Joshua leaving the Munich squad, a scenario that the club's executives view with great concern. A situation where anything can happen.
