Although Kimmich has always been a target for Bayern, 90min has learned that the German's agents have spoken with teams all around Europe, including Barcelona, to evaluate interest in the midfielder.
The 28-year-old is a super top talent who knows the game in a terrific way, and when Xavi was asked about his side's interest in Kimmich last month, he did not hold back in expressing his desire to work with the player. A dialogue with Bayern will take place if the door is open.
Hainer, who recently questioned Xavi's conduct in an interview with Sky Sports Germany, seems to have been irritated by his comments.
First and foremost, I have a lot of respect for Barcelona and Xavi as a player, Hainer stated.
Haimer added: "Joshua is a leader, has won many titles with us and will also continue to win titles with us in the future. I want to keep him. He will undoubtedly figure prominently in our long-term ambitions as one of the team's key players.
The scenario involving Kimmich has attracted the attention of several of Europe's best teams, including Manchester City, who are known fans of the Germany international.
He recently made an effort to quell the rumors about his future, asserting that he still has "big plans" for Bayern.
It was challenging to avoid hearing about the rumors, he admitted to BILD. "In general, I don't put much stock in the rumors.
In January 2019, Davies joined Bayern Munich after making his MLS debut as a winger for Vancouver Whitecaps. Despite initially playing in that attacking position in Germany, Davies was soon switched to left-back and has stayed there ever since.
Davies, who is currently regarded as one of the top left-backs in the game, has acknowledged that he still longs to revert to his former position as a winger.
Davies admitted on the Say Less podcast, "I was hired to replace Arjen Robben." "And I was then utilized as a full-back when David Alaba got hurt. I'm still there three or four years later.
Moreover, Davies acknowledged that he was "waiting for the opportunity to play further forward."
