Bavarian Adventures or Premier League Plunge?…
Joshua Kimmich is caught in a pickle bigger than a British breakfast dilemma. Should he stick with the lederhosen charm of Bayern Munich or fancy a fish and chips affair with Liverpool and Arsenal? The 30-year-old midfielder, who kicked off his career at Stuttgart before boogying to Bayern in 2015, is facing the ultimate contract conundrum since his deal expires faster than summer in London.
Despite collecting Bundesliga trophies like they’re going out of fashion and partying with the Champions League title, Kimmich has yet to sign on the dotted line. While Liverpool and Arsenal are eager to roll out the red carpet, Bayern legend Lothar Matthaus insists that Kimmich’s best bet is to stay put in Munich. In his typically German direct tone, Matthaus declared, “No club can match Bayern’s prospects and let’s not wait till pigs fly!”
With tendonitis putting his Bundesliga feats on a temporary hiatus, there’s a sliver of hope we’ll see Kimmich back soon, maybe staring down Bayer Leverkusen in the Champions League. But whether it’s a Munich frothy beer or Liverpool’s famous Beatles charm that’ll win his heart – only time will tell if Kimmich’s compass points towards Bavarian pretzels or Premier League fish fritters!
