FC Barcelona and Joshua Kimmich seem destined to meet, as scenarios are being presented that suggest the German footballer could change clubs soon. This gives the Barça team more and more options to gain their services

Calendar of FC Barcelona

Joshua Kimmich has turned into one of the main priorities of the FC Barcelona to reinforce of face to the season 2024-25. From the beginning of the campaign 2023-24, was evident that Xavi Hernández wished to have he to reinforce the zone of pivote. Nevertheless, in this moment, the incorporation of the German presented like something 'utopian' because of the refusal of the Bayern Munich to negotiate his traspaso, what suggested that his addition would not be simple.

However, along this course, the situation with the native of Rottweil has gone changing and now seems more favourable for the Barcelona cast, that no longer sees so far the option of fichar to the talentoso midfield player. Although the interest of the Barça seems to be serious and, according to the rumours of the last days, Kimmich would not see with bad eyes add to a new adventure in the combined of the City Condal, everything is supeditado to the economic capacity of the club to make an incorporation of this magnitude, and also depends on to obtain the financial permission of LaLiga to act under the modality 1/1.

In this sense, so much the FC Barcelona like other clubs interested in the canterano of the Stuttgart have received news that suggest that it could be considering a change of airs for the next season. Recently, it informed through 'Sport BILD' that Ralf Rangnick, the one who apparently was one of the candidates to be the trainer of the Bayern Munich, has decided to continue in his current charge like seleccionador of Austria until 2026, descartando like this the option to direct to the Bavarian cast.

Why the "no" of Rangnick to the Bayern influences in the continuity of Kimmich in Baviera?

This refusal of the native of Backnang to assume the place of technical director in the 'Die Roten' is an important factor that moves away even more to Joshua Kimmich of Baviera. Why? Because the '6' of the Bayern seems to have a good relation with Rangnick, since both coincided in the RB Leipzig during two campaigns. During this period, the germano was beginning his career and Rangnick was the sportive director of the 'Red Bulls'.

This relation of admiration of Kimmich to Rangnick remained clear in an interview made by the newspaper 'Münchner Merkur', in which it expressed how the current seleccionador of Austria was determinant in his career. "He went extremely important for me when me lesioné with an inflammation in the pubis. Could think that to a player that cost money and only was two years could say him 'now have done something by you; now you also have to show', but Rangnick gave me time to put me in shape and can surrender to the highest level; this went incredibly important for me", remembered Joshua.

Even, also it has dared to elogiar his capacity to professional level: "it would trust fully in him, when you see what has done in the past and what has attained in his previous charges", concluded.

The permanence of Tuchel in the Bayern, another stage to value

Then, in the stage of the refusal of Ralf Rangnick to assume the technical direction of the Bayern Munich in the next course, descarta the option of a trainer that likes to Kimmich and that it could propiciar the renewal of his agreement with the club muniqués, which culminates in 2025. Besides, there is a second stage carries to Joshua to consider abandon the Bavarian cast: the continuity of Thomas Tuchel to the control of the team.

This does not result surprising, since the trainer insinuated recently the option to reconsider his exit of the Bayern. "Have a valid agreement and have agreed to terminate it before, everything is always possible", highlighted. This is due to the complexities that has confronted the club when treating to find a new trainer, as well as to the possibility that the 'Die Roten' still have the opportunity to rescue the season when turning into champions of the UEFA Champions League. Why not considering this option?

This could be the definite factor so that Joshua Kimmich leave the 'Die Roten', since both parts, by diverse reasons, seem not having the best relation. If the situation continues by this way, would not be surprising that the Bayern, in front of the apparent refusal of the germano to renew and his possible wishes to abandon the club, put it in the market during this summer. In this point, the FC Barcelona definitively could try board negotiations by the '6' to give him a jump of definite quality to his staff.
