"Galatasaray's management has already inquired about Kim with Galatasaray stars Victor Osimhen and Sacha Boey. Kim played alongside the striker at Napoli, forming part of coach Luciano Spalletti's championship-winning core. The two hold each other in high regard. Boey was loaned to Galatasaray from Bayern Munich in the winter transfer window."
"Besiktas is currently experiencing a surge in interest in Korean players following the signing of striker Hyeon-gyu Oh. They are also reportedly interested in bringing in a Korean center-back. Both Kim and Han-beom Lee (Midtjylland) are on their shortlist, but the Bayern Munich star is ranked higher than his 23-year-old compatriot."
"Scouts from both Galatasaray and Besiktas have repeatedly recommended Kim during the winter transfer window. Both clubs are already familiar with Kim's management. Premier League club Chelsea and AC Milan also have the national team player on their shortlist."
Minjae Kim gained prominence during the 2021/22 season at Fenerbahce and now plays for Bayern Munich as a central defender. Two Istanbul rivals, Besiktas and Galatasaray, are actively pursuing his signature this summer, capitalizing on his reduced market value. Galatasaray has inquired about Kim through connections with Victor Osimhen and Sacha Boey, both former teammates from his time at Napoli under Luciano Spalletti. Besiktas, experiencing increased interest in Korean players following striker Hyeon-gyu Oh's signing, ranks Kim above fellow Korean defender Han-beom Lee on their target list. Scouts from both Turkish clubs have repeatedly recommended Kim during the winter transfer window. Additionally, Premier League club Chelsea and AC Milan maintain interest in the national team player, though an immediate transfer remains unlikely.
