Bayern Munich could be looking to offload some of their first-team players this summer.
One of the players the German giants would be willing to sell is Kingsley Coman, who has a contract at the Allianz Arena until 2027.
According to a report from Sport, La Liga giants Barcelona could move for Coman if they fail to sign either Marcus Rashford or Luis Diaz.

Barcelona have been heavily linked with moves for either Rashford or Diaz, but they still lack the financial power to pull off those deals.
Coman has emerged as a cheaper alternative for Barcelona. The electric Frenchman is up for sale this summer, although Bayern would love to sell him to a Saudi Pro League club.
CFBayern insider Christian Falk reported back in April that Liverpool have concrete interest in signing Coman, especially if they lose Diaz in the summer.
Arne Slot wants to bolster the forward department, and the Reds are looking to wrap up a deal for Florian Wirtz from Bayer Leverkusen.
Bayern have been linked with a move for Liverpool winger Cody Gakpo, and it will be interesting to see if they can secure an agreement with the Reds involving Coman.
Kingley Coman could be set for exit
Coman has registered 11 goal contributions in 41 games this season. He has won huge success with Bayern and has scored 70 goals for the club.
While he is still a quality player, it is high time we let him go and freshen up the squad with in-form attackers, like Gakpo or Rafael Leao.
A lot depends on whether Liverpool will allow Diaz to move on this summer. Diaz was outstanding for the Reds (17 goals and five assists) last season, but Liverpool could still offload him if they receive a massive transfer fee.
If Barcelona fail to sign Diaz, then chances are high they could move for Coman.
While Gakpo remains one of our top targets, we need to pay a handsome fee (and possibly Coman as part of the deal) to sign him.
