"During his fan club visit on Sunday, Kim Min-jae dismissed rumours that he's considering leaving Bayern: "The thought of a transfer never even crossed my mind", he told the fans. Kim also said that he feels comfortable in Munich, that the club welcomed him warmly since he arrived and that his goals for 2026 are to win the treble with Bayern, to establish himself more and to always be ready when needed."
"For Kim, this was a very veteran way to respond to the question. A cynic might be thinking, "What was he supposed to say? This is exactly how he should have answered it even if he really is thing about leaving" - and that cynic would be correct. The big center-back might or might not be happy with being a seldom-sed used third-wheel at center-back., but he was not about to rock the boat during a season where the team has been so successful."
Fan club visits prompted Bayern Munich players to speak openly. Kim Min-jae dismissed transfer rumours, saying he never considered leaving Bayern and feels comfortable in Munich. The club welcomed him warmly since his arrival. He set 2026 goals: win the treble, establish himself more, and always be ready. Observers note his veteran response avoided controversy. Kim may be a seldom-used third choice at center-back while Dayot Upamecano remains in the squad. If Upamecano extends his contract, Kim will need to reassess his role and future. Until then, Kim is unlikely to create distractions or complain.
