According to reputed German journalist Florian Plettenberg, Joshua Kimmich has a shortlist of clubs he is open to joining when he leaves Bayern Munich. So, European bigwigs like Arsenal, Liverpool, and Real Madrid are in contention to sign the 29-year-old utility man from the Bundesliga club.

Arsenal, Liverpool, and Real Madrid could use Kimmich
Arsenal need to sign a quality defensive midfielder this summer, and Joshua Kimmich would be an upgrade on Thomas Partey. He is versatile enough to operate as a full-back as well. Apart from his exceptional defensive skills, the German international is very good with his distribution and he would add a new dimension to the Arsenal midfield.
Similarly, Liverpool need to bring in a quality defensive midfielder as well. The German international would be an upgrade on Wataru Endo, and he would help Liverpool improve. They need to bring in top quality players to compete with Manchester City, and someone like Joshua Kimmich would be ideal. He could be a option for them in the right-back department as well.
Real Madrid are looking to add more depth to their squad as well. Los Blancos will be without Toni Kroos next season, and they need to fill the void left by him. Signing his compatriot could prove to be a wise decision.
Recent reports have claimed that he can imagine himself playing for Real Madrid. It will be interesting to see if Bayern Munich are willing to sanction his departure in the coming weeks. He has been a key player for them and replacing him could prove to be a challenge.
