German local media pointed out the performance and situation of Kim Min-jae, who faced the biggest crisis since joining Bayern Munich.

In particular, Germany’s largest soccer magazine ‘Kicker’, which has been criticizing Kim Min-jae ever since he joined the team last summer, reported on the 7th (Korean time), “Questions are raised as to whether Kim Min-jae lacks confidence or the necessary class.”

Kim Min-jae, who played for SSC Napoli last season and became one of the leading players in winning the Serie A, transferred to Bayern Munich, a prestigious club in the German Bundesliga, after the season ended. Munich paid a transfer fee of 50 million euros (about 72.2 billion won) to acquire Kim Min-jae, one of the best defenders in the world at the time.

Kim Min-jae lived up to expectations in the first half of the 2023-24 season and was included in the starting lineup in every game, becoming a starting member of Munich. However, in the second half of the season, he was pushed out by Eric Dier and Mate Is De Licht and was benched for four consecutive games for the first time since his professional debut. I kept it.

Kim Min-jae, who had been listed only on the bench list, returned to the starting lineup after 5 games as a starter in the away game against FC Heidenheim in the 28th round of the 2023-2024 German Bundesliga held at the Foyt Arena in Heidenheim, Germany on the 7th.

On this day, Kim Min-jae played as a central defender. With the starting team, Munich succeeded in taking the lead in the 38th minute of the first half when world-class striker Harry Kane scored the first goal. The attack started with Kim Min-jae’s forward pass, went through Thomas Müller and Serge Gnabry, and ended with Kane’s opening goal.

After Kane scored the first goal, Gnabry, who assisted Kane’s goal in the 45th minute of the first half, also scored an additional goal, and Munich finished the first half with a 2-0 score. Kim Min-jae, who played as a starter, not only finished the first half without conceding a goal, but also served as the starting point when Kane scored the first goal, so he was expected to receive favorable reviews after the game.

However, after the second half began, Munich began to fall apart. Heidenheim changed three players, including Marvin Fieringer and Kevin Sesa, at the start of the second half, and this was a hit.
