<p>The midfielder was speaking ahead of Bayern's opening game at the Club World Cup against Auckland City later today. The outspoken 30-year-old hinted at his displeasure with the club's transfer plans, suggesting the club needs to address their attacking options after the departures of Leroy Sane and Thomas Muller.</p>

WHAT HAPPENED?

<p>Muller, who will be playing his final games for Bayern at the Club World Cup, has hinted at a <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/lists/thomas-muller-ready-germany-legend-confirms-usa-after-bayern-munich/blt49a515521ec58cb7" target="_blank">possible permanent stay in the US,</a> while <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/lists/leroy-sane-bayern-munich-winger-explains-breakdown-contract-talks-galatasaray-transfer/blt644a77667979cab0#csde1a250d60ce62da" target="_self">Sane has left to join Galatasaray</a>, a move that surprised Kimmich. This mini-crisis in attack would have been staved off with Wirtz's signature, but Bayern were unable to <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/lists/liverpool-agree-gbp100m-florian-wirtz-gbp16m-in-add-ons-revealed/blt7f07c46e90282564" target="_self">match the £116m package put together by Liverpool</a>. </p>

THE BIGGER PICTURE

<p>Kimmich said: "You'll have to ask the club what their plans are. Of course, you have the feeling that we could do something – with Flo not coming, with Leroy leaving, with Thomas leaving. I was surprised that Sane is going to Turkey. I didn't expect that. But it's his decision and he'll have his reasons for it."</p>

WHAT KIMMICH SAID

<p>Kimmich will have to put his grievances with the club's recruitment strategy to one side, as Bayern begin their pursuit of the Club World Cup <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/lists/auckland-city-bayern-munich-part-time-opponents-harry-kane-club-world-cup/blt0b0b42ce76bec9fe" target="_blank">against semi-pro side Auckland City</a> later on Sunday. The Bavarian giants are <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/lists/harry-kane-strong-message-ahead-bayern-munich-s-club-world-cup-opener-england-captain-silverware-ending-trophy-curse/bltd2df1bf68521457a" target="_blank">obviously among the favourites to win the tournament</a>, but will have to be on their best to progress past a relatively group draw which also includes Benfica and Boca Juniors.</p>
