    THE BIGGER PICTURE

    The Kimmich contract saga has dragged on for far too long. The 30-year-old's contract with Die Roten is set to expire at the end of the ongoing season, yet there has been absolutely no clarity regarding his future. On top of that, there have been constant links to clubs like Real Madrid and Barcelona, with Arsenal now the latest to be reported of having interest in signing Kimmich for free.

  • DID YOU KNOW?

    Earlier this week, Sky Germany reporter Florian Plettenberg disclosed that PSG were willing to offer Kimmich a "top contract" that would run at least until 2029.

    WHAT NEXT FOR JOSHUA KIMMICH?

    Following Bayern's fantastic 3-0 victory over Bayer Leverkusen in the first leg of the Champions League round of 16 on Wednesday evening, Kimmich addressed his contract situation, stating that he was hoping to figure out his future before the upcoming international break.

    “A decision will definitely be made soon. The ball is not in my court. My plan was to do it before the international break. The club wanted it before the two Leverkusen games. I’m noticing that Max [Eberl] is honest and is fighting,” Kimmich told t-online’s Julian Buhl (h/t Bavarian Football Works).
