Despite not being a regular starter for Bayern Munich, Kim Min-jae stayed at the Bavarian club beyond the summer.

However, the 29-year-old centre-back's future could once again become a topic in the coming months, with a number of clubs understood to be monitoring him.

According to German outlet fussball-news.de, Tottenham, Aston Villa, Juventus and AC Milan are all keeping an eye on Min-jae's situation in Munich.

An important decision on the former Napoli defender's future could be made in December, with Bayern's management reportedly planning a meeting with the player to discuss his sporting role and long-term prospects.

Should a decision be made for Min-jae to move on, negotiations would likely start at €25-30 million.

The 29-year-old has played 399 minutes across five games for Bayern so far this season. He most recently came off the bench at half-time in Bayern's 7-0 demolition of Union Berlin.
