Liverpool interested in Bayern winger Kingsley Coman
Liverpool are “definitely interested” in signing Bayern star Kingsley Coman this summer, and the Reds have even contacted the Frenchman’s representatives about the possibility of a transfer.
Jurgen Klopp wants to strengthen his attacking options for the new season, after failing spectacularly to defend the Premier League title during a difficult 2020/21 campaign.
And Florian Plettenberg from Sport1 reports that Liverpool are “definitely interested” in signing Coman this summer – a move that the wing’s father hopes to push through.
The Premier League giants are in contact with the French leadership over a potential transfer to England, although it may be difficult to take him away from Bayern. Coman still has two years left on its current deal, leaving Die Roten in a strong position to negotiate.
The incoming manager Julian Nagelsmann is also a big fan of Coman and will try to do everything to convince him to stay in Munich, and the club hopes that this belief in his abilities will persuade him to put paper on paper on a contract extension. .
But Coman may feel it’s time to start a new challenge in his career, having won everything on offer with Bayern, and can follow Thiago Alcantara from Munich to Merseyside.
The 25-year-old has spent the last six seasons in Germany with the Bundesliga giants and wrote his name in his history books by scoring the winning goal in the Champions League final 2020 victory over Paris Saint-Germain – the club where he started his career.

Coman left PSG to join Juventus in 2014, where he spent a season before securing a two-year loan deal with Bayern. He completed a permanent move to the Bundesliga at the end of the deal and has had a successful period with the domestic champions.
He made 29 league appearances last season, scored five goals and added 12 assists in the German top flight.
