Barcelona urging Kimmich to stick with Bayern Munich - for now

Bild says Barcelona and new coach Hans-Dieter Flick are hoping to land Kimmich in a Bosman transfer next year.

Barca lack the financial power this summer to close a deal for the midfielder, who has a year to run on his current deal.

New Barca coach Hansi Flick has previously coached Kimmich at both Bayern Munich and with the German national team.

The 29-year-old has also been linked with Real Madrid and Manchester City in recent weeks.
