Kim, Man Utd & Spurs-linked responds to transfer talk

Napoli Signee, Kim Min-jae responds to transfer rumours amid talk of €50m release clause

WHAT TRANSPIRED?: The center back, who represents South Korea internationally, only relocated to Italy in July, taking Kalidou Koulibaly’s position in Naples when he headed to Chelsea. Thoughts have surfaced that Premier League heavyweights are getting ready to exercise a rumored €50 million (£43 million/$53 million) release clause in Kim’s contract that will go into effect in the first few weeks of the summer transfer window in 2023 as a result of his continued rise in popularity and impressive performances at the Qatar 2022 World Cup finals.

There are numerous transfer rumors around Kim, but he has admitted to them to You Quiz on the Block, saying, “I’ve only been at Napoli for six months. One of the reasons I’ve shied away from interviews is that the rumors about me bother me.

THE BROAD VIEW: Kim would move to another team once more in 2023 after being tempted away from Fenerbahce by Napoli after only one season of gaining the Turkish public’s attention.

NEXT MOVE FOR KIM: Both United and Spurs are anticipated to be quite active in the forthcoming transfer windows as they seek to add high-profile players who will boost team standards and enable them to contend for prestigious awards both domestically and internationally.
