Bayern Munich midfielder Joshua Kimmich could be on the move in the summer, with the Premier League a possible destination.
Kimmich has long been regarded as one of the top players in European football and has been integral to Bayern Munich's decade of dominance domestically.
Nine years on from signing however, the Germany international is rumoured to be weighing up his options and could leave at the end of the season.
He will enter the final year of his contract in the summer, sparking interest from clubs in England and the rest of Europe.
According to Sky Sports journalist Florian Plettenberg, Bayern may even be willing to part ways with Kimmich if a suitable offer comes in, especially to avoid the risk of losing him for nothing in 2025.
Plettenberg has claimed that Kimmich would be open to joining three Premier League clubs. They are: Manchester City, Liverpool, Arsenal.
Barcelona and Real Madrid are two other clubs he would consider.
🚨🆕 News #Kimmich: FC Bayern are indeed prepared to sell Kimmich this summer if a suitable offer comes in. Additionally, JK is not ruling out a move, and he is open to discussions with potential buyers!

Still no concrete talks about a new contract beyond 2025.

Manchester United have previously been linked with the utility man but the German wouldn't be interested in a move to Old Trafford.
Chelsea and Paris Saint-Germain are in a similar situation.
It was Pep Guardiola that initially brought Kimmich to Bayern Stuttgart in 2015 for around €7m.
Guardiola even converted him from being an outright full back into a defender that would step into midfield when his Bayern side would be in possession, exactly how he used to get Joao Cancelo to play and now, John Stones.
