Having returned to midfield at the start of the season under the orders of Vincent Kompany, Joshua Kimmich seems to be coming back to life. The 29-year-old German player was coming out of a complicated exercise with Thomas Tuchel where he finished at right back. This time with confidence, he has 7 appearances for 2 offerings and seems to be gaining strength. Consultant on Sky Sportsformer Bayern Munich legend Lotthar Matthaüs was keen to support him and appreciates his return to form.
“In fact, you could play Kimmich at right back like in the national team and Joao Palhinha in his position. But I see Kimmich in the center. He’s a leader, he’s been there for years and he’s still performing well. Sure, he was criticized, but Kimmich is a model professional. He lives this job 100 percent. He assumes his responsibilities. The reviews made it even stronger“, declared the former Rekordmeister player.
