It is worth mentioning that the current 27-year-old Kim Min-jae also played for Beijing Guoan in the Chinese Super League back then, in 2019, he joined Beijing Guoan from Jeonbuk Hyundai for a transfer fee of 5.2 million euros, in the summer of 2021, he joined Fenerbahce of the Turkish Super League for a transfer fee of 3 million euros, and in the summer of 2022 he joined Napoli in Serie A for a transfer fee of 19 million euros。 Bayern Munich signed Kim Min-jae for 50 million euros in the summer window last year, and the contract runs until 2028. Kim Min-jae's value reached 60 million euros at its peak, and now it has dropped to 55 million euros, but his value is still higher than that of Son Heung-min, and he is still the most expensive player in South Korean football.

Kim Min-jae's worth change chart
Less than a year after joining Bayern, Kim Min-jae's performance declined, and in this Champions League game, Bayern's two goals conceded were related to Kim Min-jae. Kim Min-jae has 4 years left on his contract at Bayern, and many fans are commenting on Kim's performance after the game, saying that Kim Min-jae should be sold, and there are even excited fans who bombarded him under Bayern's official battle report, "Kim Min-jae get out", "Kim Min-jae is Real Madrid's best in the game", "I hope Kim Min-jae will be on the second leg", "Kim Min-jae messed up the game!", "Kim Min-jae vows to Kane without a championship".
After the game, Kim's performance was also criticised by Bayern head coach Thomas Tuchel. Tuchel said in an interview: 'Kim Min-jae was too 'greedy' in both of the goals he conceded. In the first goal, he scrambled for Vinicius too early and was seized by Kroos' pass, and he was too aggressive. The second goal, unfortunately, he made another mistake. We were 5 against 2 and had the advantage of numbers, so there was no need to defend Rodrigo so aggressively. These mistakes were punished. But, well, that's the way it is. We have to move on. ”
Commenting on his chances of progressing to the second leg, Tuchel said: 'Of course it's possible, the probability of winning or losing is 50-50. We're going to be able to create chances there, which is one of the hardest places to win, but it's a challenge and that's the beauty of it. We can forget about today's results and start from scratch. We need to be brave, calm and focused. Let's wait and see. ”

Football commentator Zhan Jun also commented on the game, saying that Kim Min-jae had been absent from the battle for a long time and had three mistakes to bury the good game. Back at the Bernabeu in the second leg, Real Madrid have a better chance of qualifying.
German football expert and former sports weekly Bundesliga reporter Zhang Zhang also said that Kim Min-jae is inescapable of taking responsibility for the two goals conceded...... Football commentator Huang Jianxiang said that De Ligt could not play, and Bayern's center-back combination had hidden dangers.
However, there are still people defending Kim, and Bayern goalkeeper Manuel Neuer said: "We talked about it in the dressing room. Mistakes are inevitable and that's part of football. That doesn't mean Kim Min-jae will play badly in the upcoming matches. Today's performance wasn't all bad – he did well in some parts of the day, but in some key moments he probably didn't make the right decisions, which always happens in football. ”
