Kim Min-jae has been named in the best 11 of this summer’s transfers.
On Saturday (July 16), soccer statistics company TransferMarkt ranked the top 11 players who made transfers this summer by transfer fee, starting value, and more. The formation was 3-5-2. Rasmus Höwelun and Harry Kane were up front. The midfield consisted of Ousmane Dembele, Christopher Nkunku, Dominik Sobosler, Jude Bellingham, and Moises Caicedo. The back four was made up of Josko Gvardiol, Kim Min-Jae, and Milan Skriniar, with David Luiz in goal.
The transfer market was hotter than ever this summer. At the center of it all was Saudi Arabia. The Saudis used their oil money to sweep up some of Europe’s world-class players. The likes of Ballon d’Or winner Karim Benzema and N’Golo Kante headed to the kingdom. Some teams have changed their game by moving to Saudi Arabia.
Liverpool is one such team. The Reds lost longtime midfielders Jordan Henderson and Fabinho to Saudi Arabia. The Reds quickly brought in Alexis Sanchez and Emre Can. The departure of Henderson and Fabinho to Saudi Arabia led to a generational change in the center of the field.
Superstar transfers and big money transfers have also garnered a lot of attention. One of the most talked about transfers was Kane. Bayern Munich wanted Kane throughout the transfer window. They struggled last season due to the lack of a proper striker. Thomas Tuchel took over midway through the season, and although they were aiming for the treble, they had to settle for the league title.
So the plan was to strengthen the squad by signing Kane. To get Kane, Munich had to make a deal with Tottenham. Dealing with Tottenham chairman Daniel Levy is notoriously difficult. Munich and Tottenham went back and forth with offers and rejections. Even on the eve of kickoff, Kane’s arrival was still undecided. Munich didn’t give up and kept Kane just before the German Super Cup.
According to the British publication The Athletic, “Munich have reached an agreement with Tottenham for Kane. Munich have agreed a deal with Tottenham for Kane. Tottenham have accepted Munich’s offer, which is worth more than 100 million euros ($145 million). Kane has also agreed to join Munich and has been offered a four-year contract,” the report said.
This summer’s transfer market has seen many transfer records broken. With Kane, Munich broke the club record of €80 million for Luka Hernandez. Manchester City paid €90 million for Gervinho, making him the most expensive defender of all time. Chelsea set an all-time record. They spent £115 million ($194.5 billion) to sign Cesc Fabregas, surpassing the highest transfer fee in English Premier League (EPL) history.
The transfers that Korean fans were most excited about were those of Lee Kang-in and Kim Min-jae. Lee 메이저토토사이트 Kang-in was the centerpiece of Mallorca’s tactics. Mallorca played a counter-attacking style, and their attacks started from Lee’s toes. He continued to shine at the 2022 World Cup in Qatar, and his performances caught the attention of the world. Several big clubs were after him, but he chose to wear the colors of Paris Saint-Germain (PSG).
In just one season at Napoli, Kim became one of the best defenders in the world. He was a wall of defense all season long, protecting Napoli’s goal. With Kim’s performance, Napoli became a force to be reckoned with. They reached the quarterfinals of the UEFA Champions League (UCL) for the first time in their history. The culmination was the Scudetto. Napoli won their first title in 33 years. Kim was named the best defender in Serie A for his performance.
There were many teams that wanted him. Man City, Manchester United, and Munich were among them. In the early stages of the transfer market, it looked like a move to Manchester United was close, but as the Red Devils faltered, Munich swooped in, and the deal went through the roof. In the end, Kim Min-jae headed to Munich. The transfer of Kim Min-jae means that Munich will be able to see a Korean player as a starter during the ‘Revolution’.
