He doesn't even have time to breathe. Kim Min-jae (29, Bayern Munich) who was expected to take a break for four weeks is preparing to start again.

Bayern will face Jeanette Pauli in the 27th round home game of the Bundesliga in the 2024-2025 season at Allianz Arena in Munich, Germany, on the 29th (Korea Standard Time).

Currently, Bayern is leading the league with 62 points. It is six points behind Leverkusen (56 points). The team is still in an advantageous position, but it should not let its guard down as there are eight more games to play.

The problem is that the A-match hitting is too big in March. Left fullback Alfonso Davis and Dayo Upamecano were ruled out for the season. Bayern lost half of its four main defenders in an instant.

"Unfortunately, there is always a risk that players will come back injured during the A-match break. Especially this time, it is a big blow. The absence of Davis and Dayo Upamecano is a big burden to Bayern," Bayern coach Max Eberle said with a sigh.

Kim Min-jae is also in poor physical condition. He has felt achilles tendon pain since October last year, and has been away since the match against Union Berlin on the 15th. "It is already known that there is a problem with (Kim Min-jae's) Achilles tendon," said Bang Sang-Kompany at the time. "Now we need to manage it so that the burden is not concentrated."

Kim Min-jae also failed to join the Korean national team led by Hong Myung-bo during the A-match in March. He was initially listed on the call-up list, but was later dropped due to injury. Instead of putting himself on a flight to Korea, he stayed in Germany and focused on rehabilitation.

For this reason, coach Hong Myung-bo made a decisive statement. "What's a little disappointing is that Bayern Munich should have prevented it to protect players. There have been signals about the risk of Kim Min-jae's injury," he pointed out.

"Barbarian Football" also sympathized with Hong's criticism. "It appears to be a sharp criticism of Kompany. That is a valid story. We had ample opportunity to rest Kim Min-jae," Kompany said. "However, Kompany appointed Kim Min-jae and Upamecano to wear out this season. If Kompany and Kim Min-jae had taken a more cautious approach, they might have prevented him from reaching that point."

However, Kim Min-jae returned to the training ground much faster than expected. He has been shown participating in team training since last Monday. It was not just a recovery training but even a mini-game.

In fact, the timing of Kim's return is expected to be around the second week of April. Earlier in the day, Germany's TZ reported, "Kim Min-jae will have to wait a little longer than Manuel Neuer. He has been struggling with his Achilles tendon for a while and will continue to rest even after the A-match break. Kompany recently stressed that he should not put too much pressure on him."

However, as Bayern's defense line was devastated, Kim had to hurry to return. Chances are high that he will start from the match against Jeankt Pauli right away. "Kompany will hope that besides Dyer, Kim Min-jae will also be able to play again as soon as possible," Bild said. "The silver lining is that Kim Min-jae returned to Monday's team training earlier than expected. He is said to be ready to play in upcoming matches."

In addition, "Sky Sports Germany" and TZ also put Kim Min-jae on the best 11 expectations. Eric Dier is the most likely partner. Hiroki Ito is expected to take charge of the left fullback and Konrat Reimer will take charge of the right defense. 바카라

Davis was also seen walking alone after the game, but a detailed examination revealed that he ruptured his cruciate ligament. The rehabilitation period is expected to be as long as six months.

"Davis was diagnosed with a torn cruciate ligament in his right knee after his return from the Canadian team. He is scheduled to undergo surgery today. He will not be seen for several months," Bayern said.

Upamecano's knee injury is also more serious than expected. "Upamecano is definitely out for the season unless a miracle happens. As things stand now, he needs at least three months of recovery," Bild said. "He could be out for longer. Upamecano needs surgery just like Davis. After the surgery, we will be able to check exactly how long he will be out."
