Tottenham Hotspur Are Among The Clubs Hoping To Land This Bayern Munich Talent: Good Choice For Frank? | OneFootball

In a recent report, Tuttomercatoweb stated that Tottenham Hotspur are among the clubs hoping to land Bayern Munich talent Kim Min-jae. It has been claimed that Spurs would have to rival Chelsea and Atletico Madrid in the race to land the South Korea international.

Kim’s Impressive Form In German Football

Kim had a solid campaign at the Bavarian club as he put in a string of impressive displays at the heart of their backline. The 28-year-old made 43 appearances for Bayern last season, scoring three times on all fronts.

The South Korean defensive ace was a solid presence inside his half and did well to make 35 tackles, 23 blocks and 37 interceptions in the Bundesliga. He was even accurate when distributing possession from the back after completing 92.5% of his attempted passes in the German top tier (stats via fbref.com).

His current contract at the German club will expire in the summer of 2028. Therefore, it won’t be easy for Tottenham to get a deal done for Kim on the cheap this off-season.

Will Kim Be A Good Choice For Tottenham Hotspur Boss Thomas Frank?

Kim is a tough-tackling defender who can time his challenges well to earn the ball back for his team inside his half. He usually puts his foot through the ball when the opposition are on the offensive and can even play his way out from the back.

Standing at 1.90m, the South Korea international is a strong presence in the air as well. However, only time will tell whether he can make a smooth transition to life in the Premier League if Spurs manage to get him on board this off-season.

Kim would add more bite and steel to Tottenham boss Thomas Frank’s defence. He has what it takes to compete for regular first-team football at the North London club next season.

At 28, Kim is playing in his prime which makes him a decent choice for Spurs to pursue in this summer transfer window. With all things considered, Frank should focus on going all out to win the race for his services ahead of the new campaign as he might help the London club compete for a major trophy over the next few years.
