KIM Partner Injured, We Have No Way To Keep a Diary

Bayern Munich's defense has another hole. Dayo Upamecano is out of the game for a while due to injury.

"Upamecano will be absent. Upamecano is currently sidelined. Upamecano tore his leg muscle. He was replaced after half-time in a match against Union Berlin. "Upamecano's fiber in the back of his thigh was torn. It will take weeks, not days. It is tough for Upamecano and for us as well. He has been in his best condition for weeks," coach Thomas Tuchel told reporters after the match.

Upamecano started in the German Bundesliga match against Union Berlin on early Saturday morning, but was replaced soon after the start of the second half. As Munich finished the first half scoreless, it could not be regarded as a replacement of reprimand. Fans were worried that Upamecano might have been injured. Eric Dier was substituted for Upamecano.

After the match ended with Munich's victory, Tuchel mentioned Upamecano's injury, and the club also made an official announcement. As Tuchel said, Upamecano is not expected to play for the next few weeks.

The injury of Upamecano put Munich on alert. There were a total of three center backs available to Munich, but the number has been reduced to two now due to the absence of Upamecano. Kim Min-jae, who was called up to the national team for the 2023 Asian Cup in Qatar, has to manage the squad without rotation of center backs for up to three weeks before he returns. Munich is likely to start with professional center backs Matthijs Dericht and Dier.

However, there are concerns about Dyer's performance. Dyer is a player who has not been recognized for his ability to defend the bench even at Tottenham Hotspur. When the news came out that Munich would bring Dyer on loan, many people questioned Munich's choice. 스포츠중계

German and Munich legend Lothar Matheus also recently criticized Dyer, saying, "Munich needs to be reinforced for more squad depth. Are these players reinforced? Dyer has not been a key player at Tottenham recently. I remember honorary chairman Uli Hönes saying, "We will no longer recruit players sitting on the bench for other clubs." However, recent recruitment seems to be a different story."

However, Munich does not have many options. Aleksandar Pavlovic could be the center back if Dericht and Dier are not hired, but since Pavlovic is not a professional center back, it is hard to expect a good performance. With Kim Min-jae away, even Upamecano collapsed, which put the team in big trouble.

One good thing is that Dier displayed good performance at his debut match in Munich. After replacing him with Upamecano, Dier defended his team's defense and helped the team win without allowing even a single goal. Munich won the match thanks to Rafael Geheiro's opening goal in the first half of the second half.

Based on soccer statistics media "Pot Mob," Dyer recorded a pass success rate of 91 percent, one long pass successful (two attempts), two final third-region passes, two clearings, one interception, and one ground race successful (100 percent). The media gave Dyer a 6.5 percent rating.

Manchester United and Arsenal will compete for Recruitment

Premier League clubs' competition for recruitment of Kim Min-jae's fellow Bayern Munich defender De Ligt is drawing attention.

Team Talk of the U.K. reported on the 23rd that "Manchester United hereinafter referred to as Manchester United and Arsenal have a chance to surprise recruit Bayern Munich defenders," adding, "There is a possibility that Bayern Munich center back De Ligt will leave the team after the end of this season. Both Manchester United and Arsenal will start recruiting new center backs after this season."

The media outlet said, "Lisandro Martinez is the only center back who is expected to remain at Manchester United next season. The future of Manchester United's Maguire, Lindelof, Varane, and Evans is all uncertain. De Ligt showed outstanding performances at Ajax along with Manchester United's manager Ten Haah. Manchester United also contacted De Ligt in 2019. Arteta, the manager of Arsenal, said he wants to recruit a defender who will compete with Saliba and Gabriel, who have been injured alternately this season," referring to the possibility of recruiting center backs for Manchester United and Arsenal.

Team Talk said, "De Ligt played impressively in 43 games in Bayern Munich's first season, but things have changed this season. Due to injuries, he played only 12 games for Bayern Munich this season and only played two full-time in the Bundesliga," adding, "Bayern Munich, which is under contract with De Ligt until 2027, is in an advantageous position to demand enough money for De Ligt's transfer fee."

In particular, De Ligt has shown willingness to move due to Kim Min-jae and Upamecano. Bayern Munich also hired Dier on loan, and there is a rumor that it will recruit Barcelona center back Araujo, referring to De Ligt's unstable position this season.

Bayern Munich signed De Ligt to a five-year, long-term contract in 2022, but De Ligt is losing ground after two seasons. German Sky Sports said, "De Ligt wants more playing time. After the end of this season, he may break up with Bayern Munich. De Ligt is under contract with Bayern Munich until 2027, but he may leave the team two years after joining Bayern Munich. If an appropriate offer comes to De Ligt, Bayern Munich can allow him to move."

Bayern Munich, where Kim Min-jae's absence from the Asian Cup, played full-time in the 18th round of the Bundesliga against Bremen in the 2023-24 season on the 21st, with De Ligt and Upamecano playing as center backs side by side, but suffered a shock defeat of 0-1. De Ligt, who is suffering from repeated knee injuries this season, said, "The pain has not completely disappeared yet, but I am most happy to be able to move freely on the field again."

De Ligt expressed his motivation, saying, "Even if Kim Min-jae returns, my goal is to secure Bayern Munich's main player," but rumors of a transfer have been steadily mentioned recently. 스포츠토토

PSG Legend commented on Ronaldo's Remarks

French female soccer player Leroblo 38 analyzed that Cristiano Ronaldo 39, Al-Nasr's recent remarks were the result of being conscious of Lionel Messi 37, Miami.

"The Paris Saint-Germain PSG women's soccer team Legend Lor Blo criticized Cristiano Ronaldo as a player with excessive self-esteem," the global sports media "Goal.COM" said on the 23rd.

In December 2022, the Saudi Arabian Professional Football League, which has Cristiano Ronaldo, began to build up its size in earnest by recruiting additional Karim Benzema, N'Golo Kante, and Roberto Firmino after Ronaldo.

It is also a Saudi league that boasts a brilliant lineup with not only outdated players but also "signboard star" Neymar in its arms.
Ronaldo, who attended the Globe Soccer Awards in Dubai, the United Arab Emirates, talked about the growth of the Saudi league. He undermined the French Ligue 1 team in the process.

Ronaldo said, "To be honest, I don't think the Saudi league is worse than the French league. The French league has two or three teams of good quality. I think Saudi Arabia is more competitive," and he praised the level of Saudi league he belongs to.

"Thoughts are free to speak. It's just my opinion. I played here for a year. I know what I'm talking about. I think we Saudi are better than the French league at the moment," he said, stressing his opinion once again.
Ronaldo said, "Al-Nasr, time is happy in Saudi Arabia. It will take a long time, but Saudi Arabia is going to grow to the highest level in the world. The Saudi league will be among the top three leagues in the world. I'm sure the Saudi people will be proud of it."

In response, PSG and French women's national team defender Lor Blau made determined remarks.

As a panelist for France's Canal+, she questioned, "Ronaldo's remarks are truly amazing. Why is he attacking League One? Is it because Lionel Messi played here?"
Blau said, "I thought about why Ronaldo mentioned League 1, not any other league. My conclusion was that Ronaldo didn't deserve to say that."

In fact, Ronaldo has never played in the league 1. He has played in the Portugal Primera Liga, the English Premier League, the Spanish La Liga, and the Italian Serie A, but it is not the French league. 스포츠토토

"Ronaldo has played in other national leagues. He is not in League One. That's why his remarks are even more strange to me. I don't think he knows much about League One," Blau said.

France's Ligue 1 team also reacted to Ronaldo's comment. Earlier on Monday, the team posted a photo of Lionel Messi, Ronaldo's longtime rival who played for PSG, on its official social media account. Behind Messi in the photo, the phrase "GOAT," which means "the greatest of all time in history," was clearly seen.

France's News 18 reported that Ronaldo's comment would not have been comfortable for the team. The team expressed discontent through social media. Messi and Ronaldo's rivalries were really famous, and they avenged Ronaldo's comment through this photo.
Messi played in 75 official matches for PSG. During this period, he scored 32 goals and 35 assists, displaying robust performance. Moreover, he led his team to the championship with outstanding performances at the last FIFA World Cup Qatar 2022. It could be annoying for Ronaldo.
Blau said, "I watched a Saudi professional league game. Honestly, I don't think what Ronaldo said was true. I think Ronaldo's statement is an expression of pride. He has excessive self-esteem. It's not that I don't like Ronaldo, but I can't like his statement."

'Kim Sun-hyung-Ahn Young-jun-Huh Il-young's Absence' is Painful

The Seoul SK Wyverns have entered the "stand-it-or-die mode." It is painful to lose the starting lineup. Still, coach Jeon Hee-chul 51 is viewing it as positively as possible.

SK currently has no Kim Sun-hyung, Ahn Young-joon and Heo Il-young. Since there is no main guard, the operation is not easy. The forward, who plays in offense and defense, is missing, and the shooter is gone. 60% of the five main players left.

It is also possible to make people cry. "That is a relief. We need to think about the playoffs as well. If we endure it a little longer, we will be in a stable position. We need to become a member who can fully perform in the playoffs," coach Jeon said.

"Ahn Young-joon recovers about two weeks earlier than scheduled. Kim Sun-hyung may be able to return to the team once the FIBA break is over. Heo has started training to run. I think I will be able to match the game against KT at home on Feb. 3," he added.

It's a blow right now, but in the end, the important part is spring basketball. Currently, he is in second place. There is little chance that he will fail to advance to the round of six. It would be best if everyone returns in March, plays the remaining season at 100 percent, and prepares for spring basketball.

There will be a break from Feb. 16 to Feb. 27 in the qualifying round for the FIBA Asia Cup. It is not a bad part for SK. In the meantime, he needs to recover steadily and prepare well. 스포츠토토

SK has many good players, but there is also a "system" created by coach Jeon Hee-chul. Even if someone is missing, it goes back when another player enters. Oh Jae-hyun and Yang Woo-seop are cheering up. If you hold on, you can run again.
