Is there a 8stream-minimal or 9stream-minimal image that uses microdnf?

We're searching for a smaller base image for the Ceph project, and
we'd like to use an image similar to
https://catalog.redhat.com/software/containers/ubi8/ubi-minimal/5c359a62bed8bd75a2c3fba8
, but the ubi8 repos don't have all the packages we need.

Maybe we could use the Stream 8 .repo files with ubi8-minimal as a
workaround? But what should we do for el9?
