With Sky Germany’s statement, the opportunity for Arsenal to recruit Joshua Kimmich is growing.
According to Football London, Arsenal could have the perfect opportunity to sign Joshua Kimmich with Bayern Munich ready to sell the midfielder this summer.
Kimmich, 29, has been an indispensable member of Bayern for the past 9 years following a £6 million transfer from RB Leipzig. He made 390 appearances during his time at the Allianz Arena, winning 20 titles, including eight Bundesliga titles .
But Kimmich, who has one year left on his contract, could leave Bayern during the summer transfer window. Sky Germany reports that Bayern are considering selling the German international, as they prepare for a squad overhaul under new coach Vincent Kompany.
Kimmich is one of the top 6 stars that Bayern is ready to put on the transfer market this summer. According to Football London, it is a great opportunity for Arsenal to recruit Kimmich.
Coach Mikel Arteta highly appreciates this player, in the context that Arsenal also needs to add a midfielder to thicken the squad.
