Al-Nassr working on Kim Min-jae swoop
Saudi Pro League giants Al‑Nassr are actively pursuing a move for Bayern Munich defender Kim Min‑jae, according to Foot Mercato. The South Korean centre-back, who joined Bayern from Napoli in 2023 for €50 million, featured 27 times for his current employers en route to Bundesliga glory last time out. Advertisement Despite suffering from an Achilles injury earlier in the season, Kim remained a core figure in Bayern's defensive plans for the rest of the campaign. However, due to the arrival of Jonathan Tah on a free transfer from Bayer Leverkusen, manager Vincent Kompany may be open to letting Kim depart, especially if it benefits all parties. Al‑Nassr are now working on a deal to bring Kim to Riyadh, viewing him as a prime candidate to replace the soon-to-depart Aymeric Laporte and bolster their AFC Champions League ambitions. Kim's experience in Europe's top leagues, having excelled in Serie A and the Bundesliga, would bring invaluable leadership to Al-Nassr's backline. Advertisement With the Saudi Pro League continuing its aggressive recruitment strategy, Kim could become the latest name to join the exodus from Europe to the Middle East. A move to Saudi Arabia would provide both financial reward and the prospect of regular playing time, which are both important factors for the 28-year-old as he enters the peak years of his career. While negotiations are still ongoing and are expected to continue in the coming weeks, Al-Nassr will be buoyed by Kim's reported desire to move to the Middle East. Al-Nassr are working on reinforcements in several positions and remain keen on bringing in a new left-sided winger. Luis Diaz is the prime target for the Knights of Najd, who have also been linked with Rafael Leao.
