Gunners 'explore Coman deal'
Arsenal are considering a swoop for Bayern Munich winger Kingsley Coman ahead of Friday’s transfer deadline, according to reports.
Mikel Arteta is eager to sign a forward as he looks to better compete with Manchester City for the Premier League title this season.
Coman, 28, has been made available for transfer by Bayern, either on a permanent deal worth around £42m or season-long loan.
And Arsenal are considering a move for the France international, who also has major interest from Saudi Arabia, in particular Al-Hilal.
But the Gunners would prefer a loan instead of an immediate permanent move, report the Daily Mail.
The cost of bringing Coman to the Emirates will be key towards any successful transfer, particularly given the lucrative wages on offer in the Middle East.
He currently earns in the region of £300,000-per-week at Bayern.
Coman has just under three years to run on his current deal after signing a long-term contract in November 2022.
