According to several leading German media outlets, Bayern Munich have been set to extend the contract of one of the team's biggest stars, Kimmich, which will run until 2023, and with the team being allowed to leave the liquidated damages clause in place, it looks as though the Bayern Munich superstar will be able to stay in Munich.
The international became the longest-contracted player in Bayern's squad after the club extended winger Coman's contract until 2023 last week. German media outlet Kicker said that Kimmich is also about to extend his contract with Bayern until 2023.
Currently Kimmich's contract with Bayern runs until 2020, and the report claims that Bayern see him as a core player for the long term future and want to keep him with a long contract. It is reported that the contract extension negotiations between the two sides have been completed, after the extension of Kimmich's salary will be significantly improved, the two sides will be officially signed early next year.
Having arrived at Bayern Munich from Stuttgart in 2015, Kimmich is now one of the world's top wing-back prospects under the tutelage of Pep Guardiola, and he possesses the same outstanding versatility as his predecessor, legendary Bayern captain Lahm.
