Liverpool are reportedly in the market for a new forward this summer and have identified Bayern Munich’s Kingsley Coman as a target.
That’s according to Spanish outlet Fichajes, who boldly claim the Reds are ‘plotting a swoop’ for the France winger.
But a tip by the significantly more reputable Gazzetta dello Sport (as per beIN Sports) states Liverpool have submitted a bid of £30 million for the 25-year-old.
The same report claims Bayern Munich have informed the Premier League side they’ll need to increase their offer by £12 million to sign Coman.
The Frenchman’s agent is said to be pushing for a new contract at the Allianz Arena – with 24 months left on his client’s current deal – but the Bundesliga juggernauts aren’t as enthusiastic.
Transfermarkt value Coman at a whopping £59 million, but with just four league goals to his name last term it’d be a surprise if that holds up in reality.
