Liverpool are reportedly exploring the possibility of signing Bayern Munich defender Kim Min-jae this summer, according to CaughtOffside.
While no final decision has been made regarding Kim’s future, sources close to the situation believe the South Korean international is likely to leave the club.
Bayern Munich have reportedly lowered their asking price from €50 million to around €35 million, and the player is said to be open to a move.
CaughtOffside sources suggest that the 28-year-old prefers a switch to the Premier League if he does leave the Allianz Arena.

Should Kim make a move to England, he will have plenty of suitors. Liverpool are considering the former Napoli defender as a transfer target.
Newcastle have also shown interest and are believed to have held preliminary discussions. Meanwhile, Chelsea could emerge as contenders as they assess defensive reinforcements this summer.
Additionally, Paris Saint-Germain and AC Milan are monitoring Kim’s situation.
Liverpool had shown interest in Kim during his time at Napoli, and it appears they are revisiting that interest now.
Can Kim thrive at Liverpool?
Although Kim impressed during his spell at Napoli, his performances at Bayern haven’t quite lived up to expectations for a top-tier club.
It’s still unclear whether his time in the Bundesliga has proven he can succeed in the Premier League
