Liverpool are interested in signing Kingsley Coman from Bayern Munich in the summer transfer window, according to Sport1.

What’s the story?

Sport1 are reporting that Liverpool want to sign Coman from Bayern this summer.

The former Premier League champions have made contact with the management of the 25-year-old winger.

How good is Kingsley Coman?

Coman is one of the best wingers in the world and is a serial winner.

The France international has won the Ligue 1 title twice with Paris Saint-Germain, Serie A on two occasions with Juventus, and the Bundesliga six times and the Champions League once with Bayern.

In fact, Coman has won a league title every season since 2013.

The Frenchman can play on either wing and in central midfield.

The 25-year-old even played once as a striker last season.

The winger made 23 starts and six substitute appearances in the Bundesliga last season.

Coman scored five goals and gave 10 assists in those games.

Former Liverpool and Bayern defensive midfielder Dietmar Hamann rates Coman highly.

Hamman said about Coman on Stadium Astro in December 2020, as transcribed by BayernStrikes: “He’s two-footed, he’s quick, he’s very clever, great decision making and his finishing has improved a lot.”

The winger said on Bundesliga.com in February 2020 that he is “pretty much the same” over 15-20 metres as international teammate and PSG striker Kylian Mbappe regarding speed.

Liverpool would be a better and more potent team with Coman in it.
