Manchester United is reportedly keen on securing the services of Napoli’s talented defender, Kim Min Jae, to bolster their backline ahead of the upcoming season. However, the Premier League giants face stiff competition from Bayern Munich, as the South Korean international is said to be on the verge of agreeing personal terms with the German champions. In the event that the move to Bayern falls through, Manchester United has identified French center-back Axel Disasi as their second choice.
Kim Min Jae, commonly known as “The Monster,” has garnered attention with his commanding performances in Napoli last season. The youngers physicality, aerial abilities, and ability to read the game have made him a good prospect in European football. His potential arrival at Old Trafford would provide a significant boost to United’s defensive options and add competition for places among the current crop of center-backs.
However, reports suggest that Bayern Munich is close to securing Kim Min Jae’s signature, with personal terms between the player and the club almost agreed upon. The interest of playing for the reigning Bundesliga champions, who have a rich history of success both domestically and in Europe, could be tempting for the South Korean. In the event that Kim Min Jae chooses Bayern over Manchester United, the Red Devils have reportedly identified Monaco’s defender Axel Disasi as their alternative target.
