Joshua Kimmich’s contract negotiations with Bayern Munich are reportedly in the final stages, with only salary details left to settle.
According to Bild, Bayern have presented the midfielder with a contract offer that he is expected to sign soon. Real Madrid have dropped out of the race, and Bayern are optimistic about reaching an agreement.
The main focus now is Kimmich’s salary. Contrary to previous plans, Bayern won’t be reducing his pay. Kimmich is expected to remain one of the club’s top earners. Despite Bayern’s efforts to optimize the team’s wage structure, examples like Alphonso Davies, who received a salary increase, show that successful negotiations are possible. Kimmich is expected to demand a similar deal, with a significant signing bonus alongside his salary.
Bayern’s goal is clear: to secure Kimmich’s long-term future at the club, recognizing his leadership and importance. If Kimmich’s salary aligns with that of stars like Jamal Musiala and Harry Kane, it would be a natural reflection of his value to the team.
