Bayern Munich’s Kingsley Coman on the verge of joining Al Nassr

Bild reports that Bayern Munich winger Kingsley Coman is on the verge of joining Saudi Arabian side Al Nassr. 

Yesterday, it was reported that Coman had agreed on personal terms with Al Nassr on a contract that will earn him €25-30m per year, which is more than double his current salary. 

The 29-year-old’s move to the Arabian Peninsula is now on the verge of completion, with Bayern and Al Nassr closing in on reaching an agreement for a €30m transfer. The Bundesliga champions are pushing for the deal to be completed soon so they can find a replacement. 

The money from Coman’s transfer will then allow Bayern to try to try and sign Nick Woltemade, potentially. However, if previous reports are to be believed, the deadline is fast approaching for when Stuttgart will allow the 23-year-old to leave. On top of this, Max Eberl said last week that Bayern were no longer pursuing Woltemade.  

Bayern kick off their season on Saturday against VfB Stuttgart in the Super Cup.
