Kingsley Coman Says Yes to Al Nassr as Bayern Await Final Green Light

Kingsley Coman is ready to join Al Nassr after agreeing to personal terms. Bayern Munich is expected to give the final approval soon.

WHAT HAPPENED?

Talks between Bayern Munich and Al Nassr have progressed, with clubs agreeing on a transfer deal. According to reports, the agreement is close to €30 million, although Bayern wanted more earlier. Coman has already accepted the move, needing only Bayern’s final approval to complete the transfer after agreeing to personal terms with Al Nassr.

THE BIGGER PICTURE

Coman, 29, has been a key Bayern player since 2015, with 339 appearances, 72 goals, and 71 assists. He played 45 matches last season, scoring nine goals and adding six assists last season. Al Nassr, with Cristiano Ronaldo, Sadio Mané, and Aymeric Laporte, aims to win the Saudi Pro League and achieve continental success.

WHAT IT MEANS FOR BAYERN AND AL NASSR

Bayern’s attack has been reshaped this year, and losing Coman would reduce their experienced wing options. For Al Nassr, Coman’s pace and one-on-one threat add balance to a frontline with top finishers. The reported transfer fee is around €30 million, owing to his contract situation and recent availability, although figures varied earlier.

WHAT’S NEXT?

Al Nassr await Bayern’s final approval to close the deal. If done quickly, Coman could join in time for Al Nassr’s next match. Al Nassr finished third in the Saudi Pro League last season and aim to win the title this time, while Bayern, who finished as winners in the Bundesliga in the 2024-25 season, seek to retake the top of the league. All eyes are on Munich’s decision in the coming days.
