Eight of those triumphs have come with Bayern, whom he joined from Juventus in July 2017.<\/p>\n<p>The winger is generally regarded as one of the best attackers in the world and has notched 70 goals and 69 assists in 332 matches for Bayern.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.teamtalk.com\/kingsley-coman\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Coman<\/a> has only managed seven goals and four assists in 38 games this season though as he has been rotated often, with Vincent Kompany boasting a wealth of elite attacking options.<\/p>\n<p>According to <a rel=\"noopener nofollow\" href=\"https:\/\/www.caughtoffside.com\/2025\/04\/30\/kingsley-coman-liverpool-arsenal\/\" target=\"_blank\">CaughtOffside<\/a>, the France international is \u2018considering his future at Bayern\u2019.<\/p>\n<p>He is \u2018tempted\u2019 by lucrative offers from the Saudi Pro League, though a Premier League switch is also on the cards.<\/p>\n<p>Several English clubs are keen on Coman, though it is <a href=\"https:\/\/www.teamtalk.com\/liverpool\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Liverpool<\/a> who are \u2018showing the strongest interest\u2019. Arne Slot\u2019s side are \u2018preparing a bid\u2019 to try and beat Arsenal and Tottenham Hotspur to Coman\u2019s signing.<\/p>\n<p>Liverpool are ready to \u2018pounce\u2019, viewing the 28-year-old as a fantastic market opportunity.<\/p>\n<p>Coman \u2018is likely to be available for around\u00a0\u20ac40million\u2019 (\u00a334m \/ $45m), a sum which is very enticing for Liverpool.<\/p>\n<p>Reds chiefs believe Coman could be a great addition to Slot\u2019s forward line as he is a nightmare for defenders on his day, while he is also versatile and hugely experienced at the highest level. Indeed, Coman scored the winner for Bayern in their 2020 Champions League final win over Paris Saint-Germain.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>READ NEXT<\/strong><strong>:\u00a0<\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.teamtalk.com\/liverpool\/learn-fee-for-spectacular-midfield-signing-as-man-utd-threaten-sources\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>Liverpool learn fee for spectacular midfield signing as Man Utd threaten \u2013 sources<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<p><strong>Jota out, Coman in?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>While Mohamed Salah is now staying at Anfield, with the Egyptian having penned a contract extension, Diogo Jota could be sold.<\/p>\n<p>The report states that Jota\u2019s future is \u2018one to watch\u2019 this summer as he might leave to \u2018pave the way\u2019 for Coman to join.<\/p>\n<p>The Portugal star is also thought to be on the radars of Saudi Pro League clubs.
