German Media Analyzes Kim Min-jae's Slump..."Introverted, Sensitive Person Needs Full Support”

 

“Being exposed to criticism from time to time is not an easy condition for Kim Min-jae.”


Germany's Aventurer Zeitung reported on July 7, “Can Kim Min-jae (28, Bayern Munich) revive his career under Vincent Kompany? Experts are not sure.”


After joining Bayern Munich for a transfer fee of around 50 million euros ($74 billion KRW) before the start of the 2023-2024 season, Kim struggled in his first season with the Bavarians.


He was a regular starter at the start of the season and anchored the Bavarians' defense, but in the second half of the season, he made mistakes and eventually lost his starting spot to “freshman” Eric Dier.


In the 2024-2025 season, Bayern parted ways with Thomas Tuchel and handed the reins over to Vincent Kompany, with Kim regaining his starting spot. However, his form was shaky again, starting with a costly mistake against VfL Wolfsburg in the first round.


He followed that up with a good performance against SC Freiburg in the second round, but was a shambles in South Korea's World Cup qualifier against Palestine on May 5.


“Kim hasn't lived up to expectations yet,” said Abendzaitung. Bayern sporting director Max Eberle even considered signing Jonatan Ta before the transfer window closed. This is Kim Min-jae's second season at Bayern. He joined from SSC Napoli for €50 million and was supposed to solve Bayern's complex problems in central defense. 토토사이트 However, Kim did not live up to expectations in his debut season,” said Eberle.


“He had a very difficult debut season. Before joining Bayern, he had to serve compulsory military service in South Korea and lost a lot of muscle mass during those three weeks. However, he was a starter at Bayern and had to play the entire first half of the season without rest.”


“Then there were the grueling A-Match flights, where he flew halfway around the world every few weeks to Asia for A-Matches. After the first half of the season, Minjae didn't get a proper rest as he traveled to the Asian Cup. In the second half of the season, he was physically and mentally exhausted.”


“Sami Khedira was baffled by Kim's slump,” Aventchaitung quoted Khedira as saying. ‘Kim was a monster in Serie A,’ said Khedira, who was a pundit on DAZN.


“He handled all the balls and didn't lose any contests, but you don't see him at Bayern,” he added.


“According to a report by Germany's Bild, Kim Min-jae is considered an introverted and somewhat sensitive type of player. He is someone who needs to feel comfortable and have full support in order to do his best. Being exposed to criticism from time to time is not an easy condition for Kim Min-jae,” the source added.
