There is a lot of speculation in the football world right now. Apparently a top foreign club wants to sign Joshua Kimmich from FC Bayern. What’s behind it? And who does FC Bayern want?
Bayern Munich midfielder Joshua Kimmich has found himself at the center of a wild transfer rumor. As the French sports daily “L’Équipe” reported on Tuesday without citing a source, Paris Saint-Germain is said to want to try to bring in the national player as part of negotiations for Nordi Mukiele (26).
The German football record champions have reportedly made an offer of 25 million euros for the former Leipzig defender in order to strengthen their own defense. In return, Paris is said to want to bring in Kimmich, who is contractually bound to Munich until the summer of 2025.

“L’Équipe” itself admitted that the chances of success were “extremely slim”. There were initially no official statements about the speculation.
Danso candidate at Bayern?
PSG coach Luis Enrique is said to be impressed by the versatile Kimmich. Accordingly, the 82-time national player, who is planned as a leading figure at FC Bayern, could initially replace Achraf Hakimi on the right side of defense until the Moroccan returns from the Africa Cup of Nations. After that, Kimmich could move into the French midfield.

The TV station also reports that Bayern have made an official offer for Assan Ouedraogo from FC Schalke 04. According to the broadcaster, the German record champions are offering the 17-year-old a five-year contract valid from the summer until June 30, 2029. According to the report, there is an exit clause for around 15 million euros.
The Schalke midfield talent is currently injured and missed most of the U17 World Cup in Indonesia after a syndesmosis tear, which the German team finished as world champions. According to Sky, the Munich team is waiting for a decision from Ouedraogo, who initially wants to concentrate on his recovery and returning to team training. In addition to Bayern, RB Leipzig is also said to have made an offer with a contract that also runs until 2029.
