Arsenal Chase Coman in Last-Minute Transfer Scramble
Arsenal are reportedly considering a late bid for Bayern Munich winger Kingsley Coman, facing competition from Saudi Arabia for the French star's signature.
The Gunners are looking to bolster their attacking options before Friday's transfer deadline, with manager Mikel Arteta keen to add more depth and competition to his squad. Coman, at 28 years old, could be available for a move this week, with strong interest from Saudi Arabian clubs, particularly Al-Hilal.
This development has caught the attention of Arsenal, who are exploring the possibility of bringing the winger to the Emirates Stadium. However, the cost of signing Coman is likely to be significant, particularly with the lucrative wages offered by Saudi Arabian teams.
Coman currently earns around £300,000 per week at Bayern Munich, and he still has three years remaining on his contract. There are doubts whether Arsenal would be willing to match his current salary, potentially putting them at a disadvantage in the race for his signature.
Despite this financial hurdle, Arsenal can offer Coman the platform to continue performing at the highest level. With a strong squad, the Gunners are expected to challenge for the Premier League title and make a deep run in the Champions League this season.
The decision ultimately rests with Coman, who must weigh the financial rewards of a move to Saudi Arabia against the opportunity to play for a club with ambitious goals and a prominent presence in European football.
The transfer deadline is looming, and the next few days will be crucial in determining Coman's future.
