    Reports suggest that Manchester City and Barcelona have been keeping tabs on the French international, amid Bayern trying to offload players before they can bring in new faces.

    THE BIGGER PICTURE

    Coman has reportedly been keen on a Premier League move for months now and with honorary president Uli Hoeness admitting the club "want to sell players", this may be the right time for the 28-year-old to leave. A loan exit may be easier to sort as the former Juventus man still has three years left on his Bayern contract and he is unlikely to be sold on the cheap.

  • DID YOU KNOW?

    Former Paris Saint-Germain ace Coman has scored 63 goals and bagged 66 assists in 294 appearances for Bayern. He initially spent two seasons on loan there from Juventus in 2015-17 before signing permanently seven years ago.
