Is FC Bayern planning a mega transfer? Joshua Kimmich now reveals in an interview that he would like to play with Cristiano Ronaldo or Lionel Messi.
Munich – In terms of sport, there is currently very little to complain about at FC Bayern. League leader in the Bundesliga, quarter-finals in the Champions League. Only the cup is a minor flaw. Meanwhile, the squad planning for the coming season is in full swing.
David Alaba will leave the club, but Dayot Upamecano comes from the title competitor RB Leipzig. Otherwise – also due to the corona pandemic – there have not yet been any major transfers to report on Säbener Straße.
But will that change soon? Joshua Kimmich recently commented in a fan interview with the Sports picture about his wish with whom he would like to play one day. “Cristiano Ronaldo and Lionel Messi,” replied the 25-year-old when asked: “For me it is absolutely impressive, almost unbelievable how you can maintain this level over 15 years.”
FC Bayern: Interested in CR7 or Messi? A dream for Kimmich – “Almost unbelievable!”
CR7 or Messi to the Isar? After the early Juventus exit in the Champions League, farewell rumors grew around the Portuguese. Ronaldo was allowed to leave the old lady for 25 million euros, it said. An amount that FC Bayern could easily raise.
Leo Messi is also said to have not been happy at FC Barcelona for a long time, he can even leave the Catalans for free in the summer. Is that where the German record champions strike? The reigning Champions League winner? “I would like to see what the two of them do every day,” says Kimmich, interested.

Really realistic, however, is an obligation of the two world footballers not. CR7 is already 36, and FC Bayern has no need on the offensive, as Robert Lewandowski is the current world footballer in its own ranks. Messi, with his 34 years of age, is not a real option either, as he would break the salary structure. He is most likely to move to Pep Guardiola and ManCity to win the Champions League again.
So it will probably remain a dream for Joshua Kimmich to look over the shoulder of the two superstars in their daily work. But Hansi Flick’s team will also have one or two outstanding players with whom the national player likes to play. (smk)
