This refers to a device used for transferring objects or materials. - Barcelona aims to attract Bayern Munich's top player.

A fresh coach at Barcelona desires additional players and has zeroed in on a celebrity from his fraternity. As per the French sports tabloid L'Équipe, he plans to sign Kingsley Coman (27) from Bayern Munich to Barcelona. The two possess a particular link history: In the Champions League final in 2020, the Frenchman clinched the winning goal for Flick's FCB versus PSG (1:0). On top of that, the coach has constantly valued Coman.

With Coman, Barcelona could alter Raphina (27). The Spaniards are not enamored with the Brazilian and would not vehemently protest if he got sold. Reports claim that the Premier League is also intrigued. After DFB captain Ilkay Gündogan (33), goalkeeper Marc-André ter Stegen (32), and ex-Bayern striker Robert Lewandowski (35), Flick could snag an extra player he reveres.

Nonetheless, Serge Gnabry (28) is being eyed as the prime candidate for sale since he was often plagued by injuries this campaign (3 muscle injuries, a broken arm) and failed to exploit his potential in the preceding months.

Joining Bayern in 2015, Coman feels tied to the club.

However, the French international (55 caps, 8 goals) has likewise endured numerous injuries in this previous season, sidestepping 21 league games due to four wounds (muscle tear in the right adductors, knee ligament procedure in the left knee, calf muscle injury in the right ankle, muscle issues).

Currently, the winger is recuperating after his muscle rupture (in the 2:0 in the Bundesliga versus Cologne). After missing out on the 2018 World Cup championship due to a syndesmosis tear, he is now striving for a position at the EUFA Championship (from 14th June).

Bayern star Kingsley Coman on Wednesday on arrival with the French national team

French national coach Didier Deschamps (55) has included him in the roster. On Wednesday, Coman arrived at the national team's training camp in high spirits. If he doesn't meet another injury, there's nothing preventing his partaking in the EM.

Yet Coman's future remains unclear subsequent to the EM. At the presentation of the new Bayern coach Vincent Kompany (38/contract runs through 2027), Bayern's sports director Max Eberl (50) delivered discourse on the team's squad planning.

Eberl: "In our preliminary discussions, we've observed that we've already achieved considerable progress in squad strategizing, regarding what we wisht our squad to appear like and what tweaks we wish to enact. Consequently, it's plausible that we're a couple steps ahead of public pondering."

The innovative sports manager of Bayern added: "There is no original list, but several individuals may observe impediments. That can be communicated honestly. In our squad strategizing, we've already attained some ventures."
