Barcelona 'offered' Nico Williams alternative by Bayern Munich | OneFootball

Bayern Munich have offered Barcelona the chance to sign winger Kingsley Coman on loan for the 2024/25 season, according to reports.

Barca have been infatuated with Spain international Nico Williams over the summer transfer window but look unlikely to sign the forward from Athletic Club, who haven't budged over their young star in the last few months.

The Catalan giants could do with another left winger in their squad. Loanee Joao Felix played there regularly throughout the 2023/24 campaign, while Raphinha and Ferran Torres also filled in, but SPORT now claim Barca could take advantage of Coman being surplus to requirements under new manager Vincent Kompany in Bavaria.

The recent arrival of Michael Olise from Crystal Palace could harm the 28-year-old's game time prospects and the chance to reunite with former Bayern boss Hansi Flick at Barca could appeal to him.

However, Sky Germany add Barca have a problem with player registration as they currently can't add any new stars to their roster after agreeing a deal for RB Leipzig midfielder Dani Olmo.

Bayern haven't had any firm offers for Coman as of yet but former club Paris Saint-Germain are reportedly keeping an eye on the situation.

Barca still hope to strike a deal with Athletic Club for Williams, with president Joan Laporta reportedly refusing to accept defeat in their pursuit of the Euro 2024 star.

Coman played a large role as Bayern won the sextuple in 2020, scooping the Bundesliga, DFB-Pokal, DFL-Supercup, Champions League, UEFA Super Cup and the FIFA Club World Cup. It was his goal in the Champions League final that helped the German giants beat PSG during Flick's time at Bayern.

The winger scored five goals in 27 appearances in all competitions last season but saw his run of 11 consecutive league title wins come to an end as Bayer Leverkusen romped their way to Bundesliga glory under Xabi Alonso.
