Joshua Kimmich being reported today as the replacement for TAA, 29 years old on equivalent of approx £300k per week and club looked for £20m+ to get him in January. Is this really good business, surely Bradley is TAA successor?

if its up to me i would stay away from signings like this.

Mcgov…. does this rumour sound realistic to you?

I think although there may be a kernel of truth in this reporting, it is coming from papers that like to sensationalise. What wage will Kimmich sign for is probably a better question than "what wage is being reported"?

In terms of the player, I really like the look of him in the snippets of games I have seen. He is also equally adept at RB and CDM which means, if Trent does go, he can help out at RB and also be more of the ball playing double pivot that Slot wants with Grav.

If Trent does go now, then the cost for Kimmich is roughly the same as we will likely get from Real Madrid.

Kimmich is a high quality players, experienced winner etc. Is still young enough to have a few more years at the top, without necessarily blocking Bradley due to age and (more importantly) versatility.

My overriding wish is for Trent to stay, but if he goes, I think Kimmich would be a clever, versatile and high quality signing.

Staying away from the numbers obvs in honour of Ed002.

I agree. I'd rather not go there.

Replacing a player who gets criticised for not being very good defensively for one who is worse, as well as being older, slower and on even more stupid wages seems as illogical as it gets. Surely we’d have learnt something from the last washed up Bayern player we signed. I’d hope this is Kimmich’s agent pushing Bayern. Don’t want him anywhere near the club.

14 Jan 2025 16:17:03
If we're buggering about giving Trent, Salah and VVD contracts I highly doubt we're willing to offer this fella what he wants, not on those type of wages, it's not the way we do things.

14 Jan 2025 16:18:26
We need two players for each position minimum. So if we have to replace Trent it has no bearing on Bradley, He is still one of the two for RB.

14 Jan 2025 16:18:43
Kimmich also plays midfield does he not? If its true which it may or may not be it doesn't necessarily mean Trent is leaving.

14 Jan 2025 16:33:21
Ginger, apologies, i thought I posted it on the Rumours page. I'll have it removed immediately.

Red Willis, the perception of Kimmich being any good in midfield is false, he’d get absolutely battered in the premier league. He’s absolutely awful under any pressure and needs lots of time and space which he gets loads of in the Bundesliga, but neither of which he’d get here. If that’s the best Hughes is able to come up with then he should resign now and save himself the inevitable grief.

14 Jan 2025 16:57:14
Nah, not for me.

14 Jan 2025 17:03:28
Kimmich for TAA is a true masterstroke. Absolute genius.

I pray this rumour has no truth in it but Kimmich’s name keeps being linked with us. It is terrifying. He will be useless in midfield in the EPL. As influential as Poulsen

He would be woeful at RB.

14 Jan 2025 17:18:40
Surely if they would be willing to pay £300k to a 29 year old they would offer this to Trent - if he has said no to £300k it’s not about the money is it and if he goes then he wants a new challenge much better way to leave than no offering me as much money as Madrid so I’m off there.

14 Jan 2025 17:58:08
Sofa, Kimmich is on something like £320k plus bonuses at Bayern and is asking for £400k to renew by all accounts. That’s enough to give St John of Massachusetts a coronary.

14 Jan 2025 19:22:15
Just give the 300K to Trent then problem solved!

14 Jan 2025 19:59:00
I said 2 years ago that we should sign Kimmich to replace Fabinho still think that he will be a huge addition.

14 Jan 2025 22:56:20
I’m with you Langland and Zeddicus. Some sections of our fan base have a phobia of signing older players. I get it, because we’ve got it so wrong in the past on a few occasions (Thiago, Lambert, Cole etc) . We also got a few absolutely spot on though (Milner, McAllister, Endo etc) .

Kimmich is the right player for our style of pay and he can play DM, CM, CB and RB. Most other clubs fans say he’s the best RB in the world, but we obviously have a bias towards Trent. Pep Guardiola built his Bayern team around him as the midfield anchor in DM. He’s top drawer but his wages do sound particularly high. I’d be excited about him signing either way. I don’t pay his salary.

14 Jan 2025 23:17:47
I heard a little whisper that Kimmich wants £500k per week. To be fair though my psychiatrist has warned me off about the voices in my head.

15 Jan 2025 00:16:56
I think Kimmich is good in midfield and I think your perception of his abilities is false Victor. We will have to agree to disagree and If he joins he will prove one of us wrong. Hopefully you. I'd take him just to have someone who can actually take a corner to be honest.
