Kingsley Coman, the talented French winger, has expressed his desire to leave Bayern Munich this summer. After spending six successful years with the German club and winning numerous accolades, the 28-year-old has set his sights on a new challenge. And it seems like several clubs, including Arsenal and Liverpool, are keen on securing his services.
Since joining Bayern in 2015, Coman has been a key figure in the team, making close to 300 appearances and helping them win the Champions League and eight Bundesliga titles. However, it seems like he has made up his mind to move on, as reported by L'Equipe. While he is still under contract until 2027, the Frenchman is hoping that Bayern can reach an agreement with another club to facilitate his departure.
Naturally, Bayern is not keen on losing one of their star players, but they are willing to let him go as they try to reduce their wage bill. However, it won't come cheap, as they expect a significant transfer fee given the length of Coman's contract. The interest in the winger is not limited to just English clubs, with Barcelona and Saudi club Al-Ahli also reportedly in the race for his signature.
One of the interested parties, Liverpool, have had a relatively quiet transfer window under new manager Arne Slot. Despite the speculation surrounding Coman, he did feature in Bayern's opening Bundesliga game, coming off the bench in their 3-2 victory against Wolfsburg. He also scored in their 4-0 DFB-Pokal win earlier this month, proving that he is still a crucial part of the team, despite the transfer talks.
Earlier this summer, Sky Germany reported that Bayern was looking to offload six players, including Coman. However, only two have been sold so far, and the Frenchman seems determined to make a move. While Arsenal has also been linked with a move for him, Manchester City has emerged as a potential destination as well. It remains to be seen where Coman will end up, but it is clear that he is ready for a new adventure.
