Al Nassr negotiated with Bayern Munich to recruit Kim Min-jae

Cristiano Ronaldo's Al Nassr is aiming at a high-class center-back when expressing his determination to recruit Bayern Munich's Kim Min-jae. According to Foot Mercato, the team playing in Saudi Pro League has started negotiating with the German champion Bayern to consider the ability to recruit this Korean player in the summer of 2025.

Kim joined the Allian Arena in 2023 after a booming season with Napoli, where his performance in Serie A helped him receive widely recognition. Bayern bought Kim for 50 million euros to bring an important addition to the defense of the Gray Lobster. However, Kim may lose the official position after the appearance of the German player Jonathan Tah from Leverkusen.

Therefore, Bayern parting is unavoidable. He is being targeted as a direct replacement for Aymeric Laporte, who may leave after an unstable season at Al Awwal Park. One of the strongest points of Kim is the experience of playing in the top European tournaments.

From the excellent performances in Serie A with Napoli to the impressive performance at the Bundesliga, Kim has continuously demonstrated her quality to top rivals. Al Nassr hopes he will convey that spirit into his dressing room, especially when Saudi Pro League is increasingly competitive over each season.

Although no agreement has been closed, according to the German press, the negotiations between Al Nassr and Bayern are progressing smoothly. The good news for Al Nassr is that Kim is also willing to be Ronaldo's teammate. With Laporte capable of leaving, the time and suitability of this transfer seems to be suitable for both clubs and Kim.

Al-Nassr is currently busy with a series of friendly matches to prepare for the Pro League season next season. Their next match will meet the Spanish team Almeria at Mediterraneo on Sunday. After that, they will return to Saudi Arabia to confront the AL ITTIHAD rival in the Super Cup match on August 19.
