Kimmich agrees new Bayern contract until 2029, Arsenal, PSG miss out

Joshua Kimmich has officially agreed to a new contract with Bayern Munich that will keep him at the club until 2029, ending speculation about a potential summer exit. Initially facing uncertainty over his future, Kimmich drew interest from top European clubs such as Arsenal and Paris Saint-Germain, but ultimately opted to remain with Bayern, where he has played since 2015. The contract negotiations had been contentious, with reports of salary disputes, but an agreement has now been ratified by the Bayern board and is set to be announced soon. Kimmich's decision comes shortly after teammate Alphonso Davies also extended his contract, reflecting Bayern's commitment to retaining key players. This news is particularly disappointing for clubs like Arsenal, who were keen on acquiring Kimmich to bolster their midfield. With this agreement, Bayern Munich continues to strengthen its squad amidst ongoing transfer rumors regarding other players.
