Implications for Bayern Munich
Bayern Munich now face a challenging situation. Coman's potential departure would leave a significant void in their attacking lineup.
However, a substantial transfer fee could provide funds for reinforcements in multiple areas of the squad for Vincent Kompany, the new face in charge of the Bavarians.
The coming week is expected to be crucial in determining Coman's future. With the transfer window's closure looming, all interested parties will be keen to expedite negotiations and secure a deal.
