Pep Guardiola Targets Kingsley Coman as Manchester City’s Next Star Winger
Manchester City have set their sights on Bayern Munich’s dynamic winger, Kingsley Coman, as they seek to strengthen their attacking options this summer.
The French international, who has been a key figure at Bayern since 2015, is reportedly on Pep Guardiola’s radar, with the Premier League champions considering a potential move.
Sources close to the club suggest that City may initially prefer a loan deal rather than a permanent transfer, allowing them to evaluate Coman’s fit within Guardiola’s system before committing to a long-term contract.
The 28-year-old’s versatility and experience make him an attractive option for Guardiola, who previously coached Coman during his tenure at Bayern.
Coman’s recent season with Bayern saw him make 27 appearances, contributing five goals and three assists.
His ability to play on either wing, combined with his pace, dribbling skills, and knack for delivering precise crosses, makes him a potent weapon in the final third.
Guardiola, who values tactical flexibility, would likely appreciate Coman’s adaptability and familiarity with his high-pressing style.
With the departure of Julian Alvarez to Atletico Madrid, City are keen to fill the void left in their attack.
Coman, with his track record of performing on the big stage, could be the ideal candidate to add creativity and flair to City’s forward line.
However, his substantial salary—reportedly €20 million per season—remains a significant consideration for the Manchester club.
As discussions continue, the football world will be watching closely to see if Guardiola can reunite with his former player, potentially adding another piece to City’s already formidable squad.
