Germany's prestigious Bayern Munich, where Kim Min-jae is involved, suffered fatal losses during the A-match break. It was the first time that two key players of the back four line were on the operating table at once. One has already completed the surgery, and the other is about to undergo the surgery.
In the first leg of the UEFA Champions League quarterfinals against Inter Milan (Italy), the back three lines consisting of Hiroki Ito, Eric Dier and Kim Min-jae are expected to be operated.
World-renowned left-back Alfonso Davis, who recently renewed his contract with Munich until 2030, suffered a devastating injury such as rupture of the cruciate ligament in his right knee. Davis has already completed surgery.
Bayern & German, which specializes in Munich and German football news, said on Wednesday, "Davis underwent successful surgery by Dr. Christian Fink, a specialist in knee surgery in Innsbruck, Austria. Dr. Fink said he was the master of surgery for Leroy Zane and Luca Hernandez in the past."
Davis competed in the semifinals and the third and fourth places of the North American Caribbean Football Confederation (CONCACAF) Nations League in the United States. In the semi-final against Mexico, he played full time in the 90th minute and started in the third and fourth place matches against the United States, but he collapsed in the 12th minute of the first half and was carried on a stretcher.
Later, a thorough examination revealed that the cruciate ligament had been completely ruptured, and immediately returned to Munich to perform surgery in Austria. The Munich club announced Davis' injury, and within a few hours, the surgery was completed in a swift manner.
The injury will be regrettable for Davis himself. Davis' contract was scheduled to expire this summer, and Real Madrid and Chelsea wanted to recruit him. However, Munich suggested 22 million euros (34 million U.S. dollars) in renewal bonus and 15 million euros (23.2 billion won) in annual salary, ultimately inducing him to stay. However, the cruciate ligament was removed even before the ink on the renewal was dry.
In addition, Munich faced another negative factor. French national team defender Dayo Upamecano, who is in the center back combination with Kim Min-jae, is also scheduled to undergo surgery due to a knee injury.
On the same day, Bayern and German reported that "Ufamecano will also be on the operating table," and German media outlet TZ's Philip Kessler also confirmed that "Ufamecano will soon undergo knee surgery."
Upamecano was injured while playing in the quarterfinals of the Nations League against Croatia during this A-match. Originally, it was expected to take about four to six weeks to recover, but the situation worsened and the surgery was decided in the end. As a result, even the exact timing of his return cannot be known.
As the defensive lines collapse one after another, Kim Min-jae's presence is bound to grow naturally.
During this A-match period, Kim did not join the national soccer team led by head coach Hong Myung-bo, but stayed in Munich to focus on treatment of his Achilles tendon. As a result, he is back at the training site after completing his rehabilitation well. Korea realized Kim Min-jae's absence as it ended up with a draw against both Oman and Jordan in two consecutive A-match games, but it is a relief for Munich.
Currently, Munich is likely to set up Eric Dier as its centerback partner, centering on Kim Min-jae. Hiroki Ito, the Japanese representative, and Rafael Geheiroo, the right fullback, are expected to play in the left-back position.
Kim Min-jae's return is like welcome news for Munich amid an unprecedented situation in which two main defenders collapsed at once. Kim Min-jae, who chose to rest under the consideration of head coach Hong Myung-bo, is expected to support Munich in crisis.
With Kim Min-jae's return, Munich will consider operating a back three in the quarterfinals of the Champions League against Inter Milan.
"Who will replace the injured Davies and Upamecano?" Germany's BR24 reported. "The most important thing is for Kim to recover quickly from his Achilles injury. I will replace Upamecano as the defensive leader. If Kim is available, Eric Dier and Hiroki Ito will also be the most promising replacements."
"Die has started all four Bundesliga matches. He has achieved solid results and established himself as a reliable backup. He was used as a left fullback. Kompany said, "We can change the system completely and turn it into a back three, taking risks in the match against Inter Milan," adding, "The choice between offensive style and defensive stability will depend on who will come out between Ito and Rafael Geheiro."
"Of course, this is only possible if Kim Min-jae is ready to play again," he said, adding that Kim Min-jae's return is the most important.
If Coach Kompany operates the back three, there is a possibility that Ito will stand on the left, Dyer in the center, and Kim Min-jae on the right. Ito is a resource that can play both full-back and center-back, and Kim Min-jae is also a player who can cover the entire defense area. There is a high possibility that Dyer will coordinate the two players in the center.
Of course, this must precede the condition that Kim Min-jae must be able to participate. Currently, Kim Min-jae's physical condition is the most important. 스포츠토토
First of all, Kim Min-jae has returned to training safely.
"München breathed a sigh of relief. Kim Min-jae recovered faster than expected," German media F.C.B. Inside said. "Kim Min-jae recovered from his Achilles tendon injury earlier than expected. He had already participated in the team's training again last Monday. As a result, he will be able to play as a Munich player again in upcoming matches."
"München will play against Jean-Claude Pauli and Augsburg. They will play Inter Milan in the quarterfinals of the UEFA Champions League. Kim's return gave Munich a much-needed boost," he added.
