Kimmich would be a better, faster, more competent, greater utility, version of Gundo 2022…and for dirt cheap!
Give him a 30 month contract and let him have one last payday when he’s in his early 30s, by allowing him to either run it down or get another good 2 yr deal depending on his performances.
He can play across the backline, including full back, and step into any type of defensive/hybrid midfield role needed. He could be our version of Barca’s Mascherano or simply a more competent step forward CB than any we currently have. He could also be an excellent LCB in a back three.
I can see no feasible reason not to plunk low 8 figures on a Kimmich bid. He’s a proven performer under Pep and Pep loves him!
