Arsenal make first Kimmich approach to Bayern Munich

Premier League giants Arsenal are said to have approached Bayern Munich for a key player.

The Gunners want to take to Bayern about a move for their captain Joshua Kimmich.

The 29-year-old has 18 months left on his contract and may be ready for a new challenge.

Per Football Transfers, Bayern have informed Arsenal that any deal will have to wait until the summer.

Bayern want to see if Kimmich is willing to renew or is serious about leaving.

If he does want to leave, the club will then put him up for sale, rather than lose him on a free in a year's time.
