contents A graph $G$ is $m$-joined if there is an edge between every two disjoint $m$-sets of vertices. In this paper, we prove that for any $\varepsilon>0$ and sufficiently large $m, n\in \mathbb{N}$ with $m \le n^{1-\varepsilon}$, every $n$-vertex $m$-joined graph $G$ contains a minor with density $Ω\!\left(\tfrac{n}{\sqrt{m}}\right)$, which is best possible up to a constant factor. When $m \ge n^{1-\varepsilon}$, we further show that $G$ contains a clique minor of order $Ω\!\left(\tfrac{n}{\sqrt{m\log m}}\right)$.
