Tottenham ready to compete with Arsenal to sign Kingsley Coman

Tottenham Hotspur are reportedly preparing to go head-to-head with Arsenal on the deal to sign Bayern Munich star Kingsley Coman this summer, according to Football Transfers journalist Steve Kay.

The Lilywhites have already strengthened their attacking line with the signing of Dominic Solanke from AFC Bournemouth. However, it has been reported that Ange Postecoglou also wants a new wide attacker before the end of this transfer window.

Pedro Neto and Eberechi Eze They have been mentioned as serious targets for Spurs, but while Neto has joined ChelseaEze would be an expensive option as he has a buyout clause of around £60 million.

So, having spent over £100m to sign Solanke and Archie Gray this summer, Tottenham have seemingly begun exploring cheaper alternative options to bolster their attack and have now registered their interest in Coman.

It has recently been reported that Bayern Munich are willing to let the Frenchman go and are open to accepting loan offers with an option or obligation to buy.

Arsenal I have already registered Their interest in signing him is also to reinforce the flanks before the end of this window.

However, it seems that Tottenham could hijack their rivals' move. Speaking about KS1TV, Kay He said Tottenham have expressed an interest in signing Coman and he is represented by CAA, which is linked to many Spurs players and Ange Postecoglou.

He said:

“He is a good player, but he is having trouble getting playing time at Bayern, where there are a lot of good players. Many clubs will be after him. I know that Spurs are a team that is following him. Interestingly, he is part of CAA Base, to which many Spurs players are linked, as is Ange Postecoglou.”

Fabricius Romano has recently revealed that Barcelona They have also joined the race to sign Coman, as their new coach Hansi Flick likes the player a lot.

Coman, valued at around £43m by Transfer marketHe is an experienced player and has proven his abilities at the highest level in recent years. Therefore, the 28-year-old could be a smart signing for Tottenham or Arsenal if either club acquires him.

However, he has been struggling with fitness issues over the past few years and any north London club should take that into account before making any potential signing for him.
