Kimmich’s Message to Bayern Munich: A Reminder of Contractual Clarity

German footballer Joshua Kimmich makes it clear that he still has one more year on his contract and has not decided his future, despite ongoing efforts from Bayern Munich to secure a renewal.

Kimmich is the subject of widespread speculation in the transfer market, with Bayern pressing to extend his contract. Meanwhile, various clubs seeking to gauge his intentions beyond this summer have yet to make concrete progress. Currently, the only certainty is that Kimmich’s contract remains valid until 2025.

Rumors surrounding Kimmich’s future are rampant, with daily speculation in German football about his potential continuity at Bayern or a move to one of Europe’s top clubs this summer. Among these speculations, Barcelona stands out as one of the possible destinations for a player who has been on their wish list for several seasons.

During the international break, Joshua Kimmich granted an extensive interview to Die Welt, revealing how he is handling the situation as the season nears its conclusion. His statement serves as a direct message to Bayern’s management and other clubs vying for his potential departure at the end of the current campaign.

Period of Reflection “The situation for me is very clear: I still have one more year on my contract, and I am very calm,” he asserts. Kimmich avoids discussing contracts and potential offers, prioritizing competitive challenges in the remaining months. “It’s about finishing the season as strongly as possible with Bayern, in the Bundesliga and the Champions League. Then we have the Euros. Those are the things that matter,” he concludes.

It’s evident that Bayern, Barcelona, and other clubs awaiting Kimmich’s decision will need to exercise patience. Joshua is in no rush, emphasizing that his contract runs until June 2025.
