Joshua Kimmich offers ‘update’ on Real Madrid transfer links

Bayern Munich star Joshua Kimmich has spoken out about transfer rumors linking him with a free move to Real Madrid in 2025.

As part of a dramatic thematic change from El Clásico, Barcelona appear to have cooled their interest in the German international, with the intervention of Los Blancos.

Despite their frustration in securing a deal for Kimmich’s team-mate Alphonso Davies, Real Madrid have not been deterred, with another free transfer now on the agenda.

Davies looks likely to extend his stay in Bavaria, but Kimmich’s future is in doubt at the Allianz Arena.

He is now in the final six months of his current contract and can enter free transfer talks, looking to complete his summer move away from the Bundesliga giants.

Kimmich previously confirmed that he is “open” to a renewal and that it is up to the club to begin formal talks with the 29-year-old.

With no decision expected in any direction until the January transfer window closes, Kimmich remains committed to the cause of Bayern, which aspires to win titles in the coming months.

When Kimmich was asked about the situation following the 2-1 Bundesliga win in Freiburg at the weekend, he responded firmly to the speculation.

“To be honest, I can’t come here every three days and give an update. There will be an update at some point, but I am not going to comment on it every three days,” as quoted by Diario AS.

Real Madrid are expected to focus heavily on free transfers this summer, with Kimmich replacing Davies on the roster, along with a continued push for Liverpool star Trent Alexander-Arnold.

If a deal is struck for the England right-back, that could affect the need for Kimmich, but the La Liga champions will keep both avenues open until an update comes from Merseyside and Munich.
