Germany international Joshua Kimmich has been linked with a move to Spain for much of the last two years as it became clear that renewing his contract with Bayern Munich would not be a simple matter. With less than six months left on his contract, Kimmich can now leave the club for free.
According to SkySports DE, Bayern asked Kimmich to clarify his intentions for the future by January 5, in the hope of helping with planning for the summer. However, as has happened with his renewal offers, Kimmich has not given a response in this regard, although he does say that negotiations and conversations are ongoing. They say that requests from Spain and England have also arrived at their door.
🚨🔴 Before Christmas, as previously revealed, FC Bayern expressed to Joshua #kimmich his desire that around January 5 he make a clear statement about whether he wants to renew his contract or leave the club, while Bayern seeks certainty in planning.

As things stand, it is unlikely that he will end up at Barcelona due to his financial situation. Sport say Hansi Flick and Barcelona are aware of his situation, but his salary demands are out of their reach at this point. Manchester City, Manchester United and Paris Saint-Germain are cited as potential destinations, although Kimmich would prioritize a move to England or Spain.
Real Madrid have been linked at various times with a move for Kimmich, but have rarely been mentioned as a target. The Blaugrana do not seem to prioritize a starting central midfielder currently, and with limited resources, which reduces the chances of pursuing Kimmich with what they have.
