After several transfer phases, FC Bayern has found a buyer for Kingsley Coman, but again opened a construction site on the offensive. The 29-year-old wing striker moved to Al-Nassr to Saudi Arabia two years before the end of the contract. Cristiano Ronaldo’s association confirmed the obligation late Friday evening and, accordingly, pays a transfer fee that lies in the area of the current market value. The Munichers occupy significantly less than they had hoped for twelve or six months ago.
According to reports, 25 million euros flow into the record champions’ coffers, and a further 5 million euros can be added through bonuses. A year ago, Coman was associated with a move to Saudi Arabia. At that time, the Munich prices were around 70 million euros before they were heavily adjusted over the past season. In spring there was still talk of 35 to 45 million euros, now those responsible are content with a base amount significantly below the minimum claim at that time. Comans market value has dropped from 65 million to 30 million euros since December 2023.
Nevertheless, the deal for FC Bayern is worthwhile from a financial perspective, since one of the top earners disappears from the salary list, which did not constantly do justice to this standing due to injury problems. Loud “Sky“In his three-year contract, the Frenchman receives a net salary of 20 million to 25 million euros in his three-year contract and thus again again than in Munich. There he was only behind Jamal Musiala (€ 25 million), Harry Kane (€ 24 million) and Joshua Kimmich and Manuel Neuer (€ 20 million each) until the end.
In 339 competitive games, Coman, who was the longest -serving professional in the FC Bayern squad after Neuer and Kimmich, came to 72 goals and 71 templates. He scored the most important goal in August 2020 at 1-0 (0-0) against Paris Saint-Germain in the Champions League final.
After the sales of Coman, Leroy Sané, Mathys Tel and Bryan Zaragoza, only three trained welfare strikers are available in the Bayern squad. In addition to the well-set Michael Olise and newcomer Luis Díaz, Serge Gnabry is the only back-up and should also be used in the offensive center at the beginning of the season, since Jamal Musiala fails for a long time.
