Kingsley Coman commits, Sacha Boey battles: Bayern Munich's transfer twist

Coman, the French winger, has been the subject of intense speculation, with reports linking him to clubs in Saudi Arabia and the Premier League. However, the 29-year-old has firmly dismissed any talk of leaving. "I want to stay at Bayern," Coman said, as reported by Bild, making his commitment clear.

His words come at a pivotal moment, with Bayern losing Leroy Sane to Galatasaray on a free transfer, leaving Coman's experience vital for squad depth.

The winger underlined his value with a standout performance, scoring twice in Bayern's 10-0 thrashing of Auckland City in their Club World Cup opener. Having spent a decade at Bayern, Coman remains under contract until 2027 and appears determined to fight for his place under Vincent Kompany. Recent posts on X reflect Bayern fans' relief, with one stating, "Coman's staying! Huge boost for the attack."

Meanwhile, Sacha Boey's situation has taken a surprising turn. The 24-year-old right-back, who joined Bayern from Galatasaray for a reported 30 million euros in January 2024, has struggled to cement a regular spot.

Many expected Boey to be sold this summer, with Bayern reportedly open to offers around 10 million euros. However, Kicker reported that the coaching staff have advocated for keeping Boey, believing he can still make a significant impact.

Boey's recent performances, including a goal and a lively display against Auckland City, have bolstered his case. Kompany's faith in the Frenchman was evident as he played the full 90 minutes in that match, signaling a potential revival. A source close to the club posted on X, "Boey's not done yet. Kompany sees something special."

Bayern's right-back position remains fiercely competitive, with Konrad Laimer and Josip Stanisic also vying for minutes. Max Eberl, Bayern's board member for sport, acknowledged the situation last week. "With Konny, Stani, and Sacha, we have three right-backs. That's quite a lot. Sacha is here, and he will play for us. After that, we'll see what the future holds," Eberl said.

While Bayern had planned to raise funds through player sales, including Coman and Boey, to finance new signings like Jonathan Tah and Tom Bischof, these developments suggest a rethink. With Coman staying put and Boey potentially earning a reprieve, Kompany's squad is shaping up for a competitive season across multiple fronts.

As Bayern prepare for their next Club World Cup clash, the focus is on harnessing Coman's flair and Boey's tenacity. For now, both players are ready to prove they belong at the Allianz Arena.
