Vincent Kompany’s side were knocked out of the Champions League in an ebb-and-flow quarter-final against Inter Milan on Wednesday, losing 4-3 on aggregate – and given that they are six points clear of second-placed Bayer Leverkusen in the league, attention will shortly start to turn to the summer transfer window.
Falk: Liverpool Have Kingsley Coman ‘On Their List’
The Reds could see a huge summer in terms of transfer activity
The 28-year-old winger has been at Bayern for ten years, racking up 330 appearances for the Bavarian outfit with 69 goals to boot – but with the likes of Michael Olise and Jamal Musiala having taken centre stage in recent years alongside Thomas Muller retiring, the Reds could offer him a way out.
Coman will enter the final year of his £280,000-a-week contract this summer and wants to leave the Bundesliga giants. Previously described as “world-class”, Falk wrote in his Substack column about the chances of an exit:
“The bosses want fresh blood for the squad. That’s why Kingsley Coman is to be sold. In the meantime, Arsenal’s interest has also become more concrete, and Liverpool also have him on their list.”
Liverpool have tied down Mohamed Salah to another two years in recent days, whilst Luis Diaz and Cody Gakpo are battling it out for spaces on the left flank.
But the Reds have seen Federico Chiesa struggle for goals and assists, whilst Harvey Elliott’s game time has dwindled thanks to Salah’s brilliance – and Coman could come in to add experience and quality to their ranks in what promises to be a big summer on Merseyside.
Coman won 11 league titles in a row from 2012-2023, split between stints at Paris Saint-Germain, Juventus and Bayern Munich – a run that was only ended by Leverkusen clinching last season’s Bundesliga title under Xabi Alonso, showing that he is a serial winner.
And that experience could come in handy next season if Coman does move to Anfield, with the Reds having all but sewn up the Premier League title this time around and looking to do so again next season, he
could be crucial for Arne Slot
