Kimmich plays down black eye ahead of Stuttgart clash

Barcelona coach Xavi Hernandez recently spoke highly of Joshua Kimmich and said he’d be interested in bringing the Bayern Munich midfielder to the Camp Nou if possible.


Kimmich, however, appears to be fully focused on the task at hand with the Bavarians.

“It was hard not to notice,” he said when asked about Xavi’s comments following Germany’s 3-3 draw with Ukraine last night.

“In general, it’s not something I think about a lot. I still have two years left on my contract at Bayern and we have big plans there,” he added.

Kimmich, 28, has played for Bayern since 2015.
