Kim Min-jae Linked with Surprise Move to Al-Nassr from Bayern Munich

August 1, 2025 – South Korean defender Kim Min-jae is reportedly in talks with Saudi Pro League side Al-Nassr, signaling a potential departure from Bayern Munich. The 28-year-old center-back, a key figure in Bayern’s defense since joining from Napoli in 2023, has attracted interest from the Middle Eastern club as the transfer window opens. Sources close to the negotiations indicate that Al-Nassr is prepared to offer a lucrative contract, continuing the trend of high-profile moves to the Saudi league.
This development comes as Bayern Munich navigates a transitional period following a challenging 2024-25 Bundesliga season. The German giants are reportedly open to offloading players to fund a squad overhaul, with Kim emerging as a candidate. His potential exit follows a pattern of European stars, including Cristiano Ronaldo and Neymar, moving to Saudi Arabia, where the league has invested over $1 billion in foreign talent since 2023 to boost its global standing.
Kim’s move could be finalized within weeks, pending agreement on a transfer fee. The deal underscores the growing financial power of the Saudi Pro League, though concerns linger about its long-term impact on player development, as highlighted in recent FIFA analyses. Bayern has yet to comment officially.
