· Yahoo Sports
Aston Villa could make a move for Bayern Munich centre-back Kim Min-jae next summer, according to Bild’s Bayern Insider podcast.
“They already had him on their radar in the summer," said Bild football chief Christian Falk.

“They had already looked into him and made enquiries. It didn’t happen then. But he’s a topic again for next summer.”
One potential stumbling block is that, despite not being a regular starter, Kim is understood to be happy at Bayern.
With Kim’s contract expiring in 2028, the Bayern bosses are expected to hold talks with him in the autumn about his future.
Those talks could set the tone for what happens next – and whether a move to Aston Villa or another club could be on the cards next summer.
