Therefore, Man United may need to look for replacements, with Kim identified as a potential transfer target. The club is rumored to be preparing a €60m (£53.2m) bid for the South Korean, whose contract with Napoli expires in June 2025 with an option for two more years. There is a release clause in his contract that becomes active between July 1 and July 15 this year, which is believed to be similar to or slightly lower than Man United's offer.
Tottenham Hotspur is also thought to be interested in the 26-year-old defender, but Man United appears to be pushing ahead with their plans to sign him. Kim joined Napoli last summer from Fenerbahce, and he quickly became a crucial part of the team, playing 42 matches in all competitions this season.
Napoli recently won the Serie A title, with Kim contributing significantly to their success. Meanwhile, Manchester United is currently in fourth place in the Premier League, with a one-point advantage over Liverpool, who have played two more games than the Red Devils.
