Coman set to stay at Bayern despite Al Hilal interest

Kingsley Coman is set to stay at Bayern Munich despite interest from Saudi Arabia. The French winger was subject to much transfer speculation over the window but it failed to materialize. Most recently, there was an offer of a considerable economic valuation from Saudi Pro League club Al-Hilal for Coman, and with the transfer window for them still being open, the door had been left open for the player to have a final decision. It was between the Saudi riches or staying at Bayern and fighting for a starting berth even when it’s clear he won’t be the first choice. Coman has seemingly chosen the latter.

Bayern director Max Eberl also confirmed the same after Bayern’s 2-0 win against Freiburg at home on Sunday. “King is staying with us,” he told the press. Coman came on for Mathys Tel at the hour mark of the game, which the club won thanks to goals from Harry Kane and Thomas Muller.
