Al-Nassr to acquire Kingsley Coman, as reported by Fabbrizio Romano, joining Cristiano Ronaldo in the Saudi Arabian football club
In a significant move for the Saudi Pro League, Bayern Munich's Kingsley Coman is set to join Al-Nassr. The medical examination and official contract signing are scheduled for this week [1]. This transfer continues the trend of top European footballers moving to Saudi clubs, following in the footsteps of Cristiano Ronaldo, João Félix, and Iñigo Martínez [2].
Coman's move to Al-Nassr has not been confirmed by Manchester United or Everton, his previous clubs [3]. The transfer fee, reported to be around €30 million, and the contract length were not specified in the report [4]. Coman will sign a three-year contract with the Saudi club [5].
Throughout his career, Coman has amassed an impressive list of achievements. He initially joined Bayern Munich on loan from Juventus in 2015, before making the move permanent in 2017. During his tenure at Bayern, Coman played 339 matches, scoring 72 goals and registering 71 assists [1].
His time at Bayern was marked by numerous triumphs. He helped the team win nine Bundesliga titles, the 2020 UEFA Champions League (scoring the winning goal in the final against Paris Saint-Germain), the Club World Cup, three DFB-Pokal trophies, six German Supercups, and the UEFA Super Cup [1].
Internationally, Coman has earned 58 caps and scored eight goals for France. He was part of the team that won the 2021 UEFA Nations League and finished runner-up in the 2018 World Cup and Euro 2016 [1].
Coman's impact on Al-Nassr is expected to be significant. With his extensive experience and achievements, especially at Bayern Munich and on the international stage with France, he adds quality and versatility to the attacking options of the Saudi Pro League club [2]. This move marks a new challenge for Coman after a decade of success in Europe and aligns with Al-Nassr's strategy to raise its profile and competitiveness by signing globally recognized stars [1][2][3].
With the addition of Coman, Al-Nassr's lineup now includes two high-profile players: Cristiano Ronaldo and Kingsley Coman [6]. This transfer marks another instance of a European footballer moving to a Saudi club, a trend that shows no signs of slowing down.
