Bayern Munich sporting director Max Eberl believes the club possesses a center-back group that many teams around Europe would love to have.
Speaking to Kicker, Eberl highlighted the quality of Dayot Upamecano, Jonathan Tah and Kim Min-jae, describing all three as world-class options while explaining why Bayern Munich are comfortable relying on the trio throughout a demanding season.
"It's simply the situation we have with Jona, with Upa, and with Min-jae," Eberl told Kicker. "Now we have three clear center-backs, all three world-class, you simply have to say that. I think quite a few clubs envy us for the quality of these three players. Of course, we'll need all of them given the number of games. Min-Jae really solidified last season and is continuing that now."
Eberl's comments underline the importance of having genuine depth in central defense, particularly with Bayern Munich competing across the Bundesliga, DFB-Pokal, and Champions League.
Kim appears to have an especially important role after Eberl praised the progress he made last season. The South Korean defender has continued that development into the new campaign, giving Vincent Kompany another dependable option alongside Tah and Upamecano.
