is reportedly available for a fee of \u00a325-33.5m, though the journalist says that Coman would currently prefer to move to Saudi Arabia.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\"

Munich's Kingsley Coman on September 1, 2024\" width=\"640\" height=\"480\"><span><span>\u00a9 Imago<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<h2>Why Coman is a bad fit for Liverpool<\/h2>\n<p>Coman has won 12 league titles in his career, with the forward part of winning teams in France, Italy and Germany, and he also scored the only goal of Bayern&#8217;s clash against Paris Saint-Germain in the 2019-20 Champions League final.<\/p>\n<p>Despite his trophy success, the winger has been plagued by injury issues, and he has worryingly only started 20 or more games in the league once.<\/p>\n<p>Additionally, the Frenchman has never managed to score 10 league goals in any season, finding the back of the net 45 times in 221 top-flight matches.<\/p>\n<p>It should also be noted that Coman will be 29 by the time the 2025-26 season starts, and he is unlikely to be able to perform at a high level on a long-term basis.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\"

Kingsley Coman on August 20, 2024\" width=\"640\" height=\"480\"><span><span>\u00a9 Imago<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<h2>Salah is impossible to replace<\/h2>\n<p>While Coman could play on either the left or right of attack, his limited output in the final third makes him a poor candidate to replace Salah, who has scored 228 league goals.<\/p>\n<p>The Egyptian is currently enjoying the best campaign of his entire career, with the forward&#8217;s <a href=\"http:\/\/www.sportsmole.co.uk\/football\/premier-league\/top-goal-scorers.html\"><strong>tally of 27 goals<\/strong><\/a> and <a href=\"http:\/\/www.sportsmole.co.uk\/football\/premier-league\/top-assists.html\"><strong>17 assists<\/strong><\/a> in the league already equalling the record for direct goal involvements in a 38-game Premier League season.<\/p>\n<p>Salah has been directly involved in 44 of his side&#8217;s 69 goals in the top flight, and his performances this season have only reiterated the importance of ensuring that he remains at Anfield beyond this summer.<\/p>\n<p>Though Salah&#8217;s exit would lighten the wage bill significantly, there is arguably no player in world football that could come into the team and replicate the winger&#8217;s impact, making him practically irreplaceable.<\/p>\n<p><span>ID:567469:1false2false3false:QQ:: from db desktop
