Joshua Kimmich would love to work with Pep Guardiola again | OneFootball

Bayern Munich defender Joshua Kimmich has admitted that he would relish the opportunity to work with Pep Guardiola for a second time.

Kimmich burst on to the scene at Bayern under Guardiola’s tutelage and has since gone on to become one of the first names on the team sheet at the Allianz Arena.

Reports from both the German and the British press this week have linked the Catalan coach with a return to Bavaria once the season comes to an end.

And Kimmich has conceded that he would love to work with the trophy-laden tactician again.

“I know [Guardiola] and have a lot to thank him for. He took me from the second division and let me play in the Bundesliga,” he told reporters prior to Germany’s European Qualifier with Belarus.

“We won the double together and after that season I became a player for Germany. So, of course, I won’t be against him coming back.”
