Bayern Munich’s Dyer is expected to be released with a failed contract extension.
German media Spox reported on Wednesday that there is no sign of extending the contract between Bayern Munich and Dier. Dier is unlikely to leave Bayern Munich when his contract expires next summer. Dier is highly regarded by his teammates as well as Kompany, but he is showing signs of leaving the team.
The media said, “Dyer joined Bayern Munich on a loan from Tottenham last winter and has since transferred completely. Tuchel used Dyer as the main center back, but Dyer is only the third center back option after Kim Min-jae and Upamecano this season. Dyer has been included in the starting list only once this season. Bayern Munich’s competition for center back is expected to intensify when Ito and Stanisic, who are injured, return.”
Kim Min-jae is leading the defense this season by starting all games for Bayern Munich. Bayern Munich, where Kim Min-jae played full-time, continued its recent five-game scoreless streak with a 1-0 victory over Jean-Cette Pauli on the 9th. Bayern Munich has not lost a point in four consecutive matches in the Bundesliga.
It is the first time since December 2018 that Bayern Munich has recorded four consecutive scoreless matches in the Bundesliga. It is also the first time that Bayern Munich has recorded four or more scoreless matches since 2020, when it won the treble (triple crown).
Bayern Munich boss Kompany said after the match against Zankt Pauli, “We played a very tight and energetic team. We did well defensively and that was definitely our strength,” indicating that scoreless runs were the driving force behind the victory.
Bayern Munich’s Kim Mi-hee said, “Kim Min-jae and Upamecano defend against large spaces in the back. There are many advantages because both of them are fast and very strong in duels. Making wise decisions in duels with your opponents helps a lot,” adding, “I have always known that Kim Min-jae is a monster in duels. Kim understands the coach’s idea and wants to embody it.” 토토사이트
