Kimmich speaks out in favor of Bayern block at World Cup: „It helps us in the national team“ | OneFootball

Joshua Kimmich sees clear advantages for the German national team if they were to rely on a strong Bayern block at the World Cup

FC Bayern have had an outstanding season so far and still have a chance of winning the treble. While the Munich team are already clearly on course to win the Bundesliga, they are also favorites in the DFB Cup and the Champions League

A key factor for success is the well-coordinated axis within the team – an aspect that Joshua Kimmich also sees as crucial with regard to the German national team

Kimmich sees advantages from well-coordinated Bayern stars

In an interview with SWR, the 31-year-old commented on the question of whether FC Bayern’s dominance can also be transferred to the DFB team

„I actually think it helps us in the national team when there are a lot of Bayern players on the pitch. Because we are well-rehearsed and train together every day. So we have certain automatisms in there,“ explained Kimmich

From his point of view, these processes and thus a strong block of Bayern players could be a decisive advantage – especially at major tournaments such as the World Cup

There is little time for intensive training phases before the World Cup in the summer and national coach Julian Nagelsmann could build on the combined experience of the stars from Munich

Other clubs also important for the national team

At the same time, the midfielder emphasized that not only Bayern professionals play an important role, but that players from other Bundesliga clubs are also crucial to the success of the national team

„Nevertheless, it is important that other teams like BVB or VfB, who have many German players in them, perform well. It is important that we manage to form a good squad with many players who know each other, be it from the national team or from the club,“ said the FCB leader.
