Style of play

edit

Horst Hrubesch has praised Kimmich for his versatility, saying "Joshua has enormous quality and is versatile in both attacking and defensive roles," also describing him as "an intelligent player with good technical skills and agility" and as "a winner." Remarking on Kimmich's versatility, a 2017 article on the Bundesliga's official website referred to him as a "veritable Swiss Army knife of a player", citing Guardiola's conversion of a player he once referred to as "one of the best defensive midfielder in the world" into a right-back.[81][82] He has also been used as a make-shift centre-back on occasion,[83] as a central midfielder, or as a deep-lying playmaker, due to his ability to dictate play in midfield.[84][85][86] In 2015, Guardiola described Kimmich as a promising player, and noted that he "...has everything a player needs. He is very intelligent, always aggressive toward the ball, strong in the air, has an eye for free space, has superb vision and knows when to charge forward and when to sit back."[87]

Amin Younes complimented Kimmich's defensive awareness as well in an interview, after the U21 EURO group stage. "Winning the ball back superbly. He does that really well", Younes told to the media. During the U21 competition, Philip Röber of UEFA.com, described Kimmich's playing style on the website and compared him to İlkay Gündoğan, but other critics compared him to retired Bayern captain Philipp Lahm.[88]

At Leipzig, he was part of an extremely attack-minded team in which his ball-winning qualities in front of a high back four shone through. In the Germany U21 side, he has a deeper role, but he has also caught the eye as a tidy defensive midfielder. Kimmich has great timing in his tackles, can dribble and does not mind putting in the legwork.

Being comfortable in possession, Kimmich is also known for his precise passing and crossing, and is a good striker of the ball.[5][10][11][12][89][90] Kimmich himself has cited Bastian Schweinsteiger, Xabi Alonso, and Xavi as some of his inspirations.[83][88][91]

Personal life

edit

Kimmich married his long-time girlfriend, Lina Meyer in 2022.[92] The couple has four children, a son, born in 2019,[93] a daughter, born in October 2020,[94] with their third child being born in 2022,[95] and their fourth in 2024.[96]

edit

Kimmich was referenced by British Rapper Kwengface in his 2024 song "Plugged in 2:2" that featured on his album "A Gangster's Holiday".

Outside football

edit

Kimmich launched an online initiative "We Kick Corona" with his Bayern Munich teammate Leon Goretzka, to help charitable, social or medical institutions during the COVID-19 pandemic.[97] Despite his early support for that initiative, he remained unvaccinated against COVID.[98] His unvaccinated status caused him to miss important matches for both the Germany national team and Bayern.[99][100] After testing positive for COVID in November 2021 and reportedly experiencing multiple side effects including decreased lung capacity, Kimmich publicly stated that he regretted his hesitancy and stated he would be receiving the vaccination.[101]

In March 2023, he featured in the German crime series Tatort.[102]
