Al-Hilal is not enough with Joao and wants to leave Barça without its low-cost option for the win

Days go by and FC Barcelona is finding fewer options to strengthen its squad for the 2024/25 season. Recently, the Blaugrana team lost the opportunity to add Federico Chiesa as a 'low-cost' acquisition to bolster the left wing, as the Genoa forward has been confirmed as a new player for Liverpool. Now, it seems that another alternative that they liked very much to incorporate this summer through a loan might be slipping away from them.

The player in question is Kingsley Coman, who apparently was on the list of candidates for the Catalan team to reinforce the left 'wing', considering it represented an attractive market opportunity since Bayern Munich is willing to let the player go this summer. Also, Hansi Flick knows him well from his time as coach of 'Die Roten', where he excelled as a differential forward, with great dribbling and one-on-one imbalance, as well as enjoying a 'gallop' worthy of the fastest of steeds.

However, it seems that this option may not come to fruition. Why? Due to the intervention of Al-Hilal, the same team that snatched João Cancelo from Barça this summer, and their economic power to secure the services of the Parisian forward. According to 'L'Équipe', the French outlet, Coman would have reportedly accepted a seemingly lucrative offer from the Arab team, although the exact amounts have not been disclosed.

Coman has not yet given his final opinion on Al-Hilal's offer

Another source, journalist Fabrizio Romano, agrees that 'Al-Za'eem' has made an "important and huge" offer, but also highlights that Kingsley has not yet accepted it, as he is still evaluating it. This information aligns with the most recent statement from the left winger's agent, Christian Emile, who asserted amidst all circulating information that: "It is not true, Kingsley has not accepted any offer at this time".

It will be interesting to see how this potential transaction unfolds. Although Coman is taking his time to evaluate his options, whether in Arabia with Al-Hilal, in Spain with FC Barcelona, or in England with Arsenal, Bayern Munich is somewhat urgent to sell him, as his transfer could unlock the arrival of Jonathan Tah, a defender of interest to the Munich squad, and whose transfer could be facilitated by Kingsley's departure, giving them more financial muscle to make an effort for the German defender.
