Bayern Munich Withdraws Contract Offer to Joshua Kimmich

The club cites prolonged delays in decision-making, leaving the midfielder's future uncertain as interest from top European clubs grows.

The FC Bayern Munich management has withdrawn its latest contract offer to Joshua Kimmich after months of stalled negotiations and the player's hesitation to commit.
Kimmich, whose current contract expires at the end of the season, reportedly has interest from clubs like Arsenal and Paris Saint-Germain, with Arsenal already initiating talks.
The club's decision reflects a push for clarity in planning for the next season, as Bayern recently secured contract extensions for key players like Jamal Musiala and Alphonso Davies.
Former players and analysts have expressed mixed reactions, with some seeing Bayern's move as a strong negotiation tactic and others questioning the potential loss of a pivotal leader.
Kimmich, who has been a cornerstone of Bayern's midfield since 2015, is also considering personal and professional factors, including his family's future, before making a decision.
