German media kicker: “Long overdue buyout payment for Kim Min-jae…24th joining approaching”
Kim Min-jae (26)’s buyout (a player can be signed without the other club’s consent after negotiations if the amount is paid) has already been paid.
German media outlet Kicker published comments from former Beijing Guoan and current SL Benfica head coach Roger Schmidt on Sunday, who praised Kim. “He’s a really good central defender,” Schmidt said.메이저놀이터
The media outlet, which is considered a trusted source in Germany, highlighted Kim as he was on the verge of joining one of the country’s most prestigious clubs, FC Bayern Munich.
In his last season at SSC Napoli, Kim was named Serie A’s best defender and helped lead the club to its first league title in 33 years. Napoli were understandably unwilling to sell him, but a buyout clause of around 50 million euros ($71.2 million) left them helpless.
However, the delay in the official transfer to Munich raised concerns among South Korean fans. But Kicker reassured them. “Kim Min-jae’s buyout has already been triggered,” the media outlet said. “It won’t be long before Kim joins Munich’s Asia tour, which is scheduled to start on July 24,” he added.
