Hansi Flick hopes to reunite Joshua Kimmich at Barcelona after working together at Bayern Munich and Germany.
Hansi Flick is hoping to bring in Joshua Kimmich from Bayern Munich this summer as he sees the 29-year-old as a perfect midfield reinforcement for the Blaugrana.
Barcelona are in the market for a number six this summer and have been link with Kimmik, Everton’s Amadou Onana and Real Sociedad’s Miguel Merino. But Flick is a big fan of Kimmik, having previously work with him at Bayern Munich and for the German national team. So the pair know each other well and have wasted no time getting to know each other.
Flick believes Kimmik has a number of great qualities, including agility, discipline, positional awareness and excellent ball-handling skills, and the 59-year-old believes he would be a perfect fit for the Blaugrana, providing much-need stability and skill in Barca’s midfield.
According to reports from UFABET, Kimmik will leave Bayern Munich this summer. With the Bavarian club demanding a fee of around 30-40 million euros. Which is a price that the Blaugrana can afford, but the player would have to accept a pay cut if he wants to sign with Barcelona.
Kimmich ‘s playing style is quite overall in every aspect, probably because he plays in many positions. If you remember during Bayern’s hired gun coaches Jupp Heynckes and Kovac, Kimmich was use as a left-back throughout the season with both coaches.
But when Hansi Flick, the team’s former coach, came in. The player was move to play as a defensive midfielder until now. And Kimmich’s specialty, despite being a defensive midfielder, holding the ball for his teammates. Cutting the game to intercept accurately, controlling the rhythm for the team. But he can also change to play an offensive game sharply, both daring to dribble past opponents. Which is rare for this type of midfielder, and passing the ball accurately in dangerous areas. Including attacking and shooting goals.
Kimmich is an important player for Bayern in every era. He can show his efficiency according to the coach’s usage very well. Although the player’s name is not talk about as much as it should be. Compared to goalkeeper Manuel Neuer, senior teammate Thomas Muller. Or the team’s former center forward Lewandowski. When talking about Bayern, people tend to talk about these three more than Kimmich.
But at present, we have to admit that if Bayern is going to release all the players. The last person to release should be Joshua Kimmich. And I hope that Kimmich will stay with Bayern until he retires.
