Bayern Munich director Max Eberl discusses Josh Kimmich's contract situation, emphasizing the player's importance to the club and his potential to become a legend.

Bayern Munich director Max Eberl has addressed the contract situation of midfielder Josh Kimmich, who is set to become a free agent in June. Eberl emphasized the club's desire to retain Kimmich's services, while also acknowledging the player's need to consider his future options.

“He has to decide whether he wants another big adventure in his career or whether he wants to become a legend at Bayern,” Eberl stated. “When he's ready and says yes, we want to make the renewal happen.” Eberl's comments suggest that Bayern is eager to keep Kimmich at the club, but ultimately, the decision lies with the player.

Eberl also highlighted Kimmich's importance to the club's future, particularly in the wake of Manuel Neuer and Thomas Müller's eventual retirements. “When Neuer and Müller retire, he should become the face of Bayern,” Eberl said. “Joshua knows that's what we want. He has to decide whether he wants a new challenge or whether he wants to become a legend at Bayern.” Eberl's words underscore the club's vision for Kimmich's role in the team's future success.

As Kimmich weighs his options, Bayern fans will be anxiously awaiting his decision. Will he choose to embark on a new adventure, or will he opt to become a legend at the Allianz Arena? Only time will tell.
