According to Football Insider, Arsenal are contemplating an unexpected move to acquire Bayern Munich’s talented player Kingsley Coman before the current transfer window closes.
Although the Gunners made a strong bid for the championship in the last two seasons, they were ultimately surpassed by Manchester City. Mikel Arteta has expressed a strong desire to win the Premier League championship in the next season.
Arsenal is seeking to strengthen their squad in order to provide the Spanish manager with sufficient resources to achieve success in the upcoming season. They have already acquired the services of Riccardo Calafiori to enhance their defensive line.
In addition, Arsenal is very interested in bolstering their midfield and has specifically targeted Mikel Merino as their top priority. The North London club has been diligently pursuing this agreement, but has not yet been able to finalise it.
Moreover, the Emirates club is reportedly intending to acquire a new striker and has been associated with many potential candidates. However, it remains uncertain as to whom they will ultimately recruit to strengthen the number nine position.
Coman is transferring to Arsenal.
Nevertheless, there are reports indicating that Arteta is actively searching for a new wide forward. Football Insider has recently claimed that Arsenal is contemplating a surprising move to acquire Coman.
Bayern Munich is willing to allow him to depart and is prepared to consider a loan proposal that includes the possibility or requirement of a purchase. Arsenal can win Coman’s signing if they express their interest and Coman is eager to move to the Emirates Stadium.
The France international, whose market worth is estimated at about £43m by Transfermarkt, is still bound by a contract that spans three more years. Consequently, Bayern Munich may insist on a substantial amount in order to let his departure.
The 28-year-old has previously represented renowned football clubs such as Juventus, Paris Saint-Germain, and Bayern Munich, and has achieved success in every major competition at the club level.
Coman has already demonstrated his exceptional abilities at the top level, and if he were to join the Gunners this summer, he might provide a winning mindset to their team.
Nevertheless, he has had persistent injury issues in recent years, necessitating Arsenal to exercise caution before considering any prospective acquisition of him.
