Surprising new twist in the 'Kimmich case': Find out what's new about his renewal with Bayern!

The case of Joshua Kimmich and his future seems to be close to being clarified, and the outcome could be the least likely one: the player from Rottweil will renew with Bayern Munich. At least that's what they assert from German soil, where journalist Florian Plettenberg from 'Sky Sports Germany' revealed that there would be a verbal agreement between 'Die Roten' and the 30-year-old midfielder.

The mentioned source indicates that the agreement is already in progress and it is expected that the contract extension will be signed this week, ensuring the continuity of Kimmich with the Bavarian team until June 30, 2029. This could close the cycle of a series of important renewals for Bayern Munich executed during this season, remembering that the Germans have already renewed several of their key players such as Manuel Neuer (2026), Alphonso Davies (2030), and Jamal Musiala (2030).

Kimmich seemed to be moving further away from Bavaria and towards... PSG?

Furthermore, if this contract extension agreement is finalized, it would mark a significant change in the midfielder's situation. Several pieces of information have emerged regarding this case, with the two most recent ones being quite relevant. The first was the alleged withdrawal of the renewal offer by Bayern Munich due to Kimmich's indecision regarding the Bavarian sports project.

This led to the emergence of a second striking report indicating that Kimmich had received a formal proposal from Paris Saint-Germain and another club to explore his signing. This news gained strength after, in the mixed zone following Bayern Munich's victory over Leverkusen (3-0) in the UEFA Champions League, Joshua mentioned the following: "There are other clubs playing a role in my renewal. Which clubs? I'm not going to say," according to statements to 'Sky Sports'.

The German midfielder never closed the door to renewing with Bayern Munich

However, it seems that Joshua Kimmich never showed reluctance to renew with Bayern Munich, a team where he has established himself as one of the pillars of Vincent Kompany's sports project, playing a fundamental role as a full-time pivot in this 2024-25 season. The '6' has scored a goal and provided 10 assists in 37 matches.

After new discussions at Säbener Straße (Bayern Munich's training ground), it seems they have reached an agreement, which was somewhat predictable, as Kimmich also mentioned on 'Sky Sports': "There will be time to make a decision, I don't know if between these two games or before the international break," the German international pointed out.
