Bayern Munich Identify Christopher Nkunku as Top Target to Replace Kingsley Coman – L’Équipe  Bayern Munich are reportedly eyeing Chelsea attacker Christopher Nkunku as their primary candidate to replace Kingsley Coman, whose future at the club remains uncertain. According to a report by French outlet L’Équipe, the German champions have placed the former RB Leipzig star at the top of their summer transfer wishlist as they look to reshape their attacking options.  Coman, who has battled recurring injuries over the past few seasons, could be on his way out of the Allianz Arena as Bayern consider refreshing their wing options. The 28-year-old French international has been an important figure for the Bavarians since joining from Juventus in 2015, but his long-term fitness and consistency have become areas of concern for the club’s hierarchy.  In response, Bayern are said to be closely monitoring Nkunku, who enjoyed a stellar spell in the Bundesliga before his move to Chelsea in 2023. Despite an injury-hit debut season in the Premier League, Nkunku remains highly regarded in Germany, where his explosive pace, creativity, and goal-scoring ability made him one of Leipzig’s most influential players.  The report suggests that Bayern’s new manager, Vincent Kompany, is a strong admirer of Nkunku’s versatility and technical prowess. Capable of playing across the frontline or in a deeper attacking role, the 27-year-old would bring flexibility and dynamism to Bayern’s setup, aligning with the club’s long-term vision.  It remains to be seen whether Chelsea would be open to selling Nkunku, who is under contract at Stamford Bridge until 2028. The Blues invested heavily in the French forward, and while his first season was marred by injuries, the club still sees him as a key part of their project under manager Enzo Maresca.  Bayern, however, are expected to test Chelsea’s resolve with a formal approach if Coman’s departure becomes likely. The Bavarians are no strangers to high-profile transfers and will be keen to act decisively in the market to bolster their squad ahead of the 2025–26 season.  Should the deal materialize, Nkunku’s return to the Bundesliga would mark a major statement of intent from Bayern Munich as they aim to reclaim dominance both domestically and in Europe following a trophyless campaign last season.
