It's time for a logical and decisive step to rebalance -- and, to some degree, future-proof -- Real Madrid. What does that mean? With news that they're already considering big moves in the winter transfer window, it's time to go big in the pursuit of Joshua Kimmich in January.
Kimmich, who turns 30 in February, is in the final year of his contract with Bayern Munich. A month ago, all the reporting suggested he was having "positive talks" over an extension to his contract that runs through June 2025. Maybe he is, but until he signs, the reality of the situation is that he is heading to free agency.
