Bayern Munich defender Kim Min-jae will not participate in the upcoming international break due to ongoing Achilles tendonitis issues. The Korean Football Association confirmed the need for treatment and rehabilitation during this period. Criticism has emerged regarding Bayern's management of his injury, especially from South Korea's manager Hong Myung-bo, due to the player's heavy workload without sufficient rotation. The primary concern now hinges on whether he will recover in time to play against Inter Milan.
We decided Kim Min-jae would need to take time to receive treatment on his left Achilles tendinitis and rehab during the international break. We will decide later whether a replacement player will be called up.
Kim has been a victim of Vincent Kompany's lack of rotation as he has been anchored in the starting center-back position alongside Dayot Upamecano.
The Korean federation formalized Kim Min-jae's absence from their next World Cup qualifiers due to his need for treatment and recovery.
The big question now is whether or not the defender will be ready to face Inter Milan.
