One journalist is refusing to rule out the opportunity of Liverpool swooping for a Champions League last goalscorer within the foreseeable future.
Writing in his Truth Recordsdata for Fabrizio Romano’s Each day Briefing, Christian Falk mentioned the scenario surrounding Kingsley Coman, who Bayern Munich are reportedly looking for to dump.
The Bundesliga insider outlined: “If there shall be a membership keen to pay for him, and if it comes from the Premier League, I feel each side (Bayern and Coman) could be ready to speak.
“There’ll at all times be rumours about Liverpool, Manchester Metropolis and Manchester United, so there are golf equipment fascinated by Coman if he’s not injured. If he’s taking part in very nicely within the lead-up to winter, I feel a transfer might occur, as Bayern needs to promote him.”

Coman memorably scored Bayern’s successful objective within the 2020 Champions League last in opposition to Paris Saint-Germain, however he hasn’t precisely been prolific since that night time in Lisbon 4 years in the past.
He’s netted simply 17 objectives over the previous three Bundesliga seasons, not helped by an appalling harm report which has seen him endure no fewer than 15 separate layoffs in that point, with 21 matches missed final time period (Transfermarkt).

Additionally, Liverpool are at the moment nicely stocked within the ahead line, with Federico Chiesa’s latest arrival giving Arne Slot six high quality choices when everybody is on the market, so the Frenchman actually couldn’t be assured an everyday beginning berth if he had been to rock up at Anfield.
In our view, there are different components of the Reds’ squad which want extra pressing addressing, and Coman’s numbers when it comes to output and availability don’t recommend that he’d be probably the most reliable of signings, even when his averages for a lot of underlying efficiency metrics evaluate favourably to positional friends in Europe’s 5 major leagues (FBref).
Possibly the 28-year-old will take pleasure in a extra extended run within the Bayern crew over the primary half of this season and increase his scoring charge accordingly, however proper now it’s troublesome to make a case for LFC pushing the boat out to signal him, even when the Bundesliga giants are keen to dump him.
