According to a report from Kicker (as captured by @iMiaSanMia ), Bayern Munich’s supervisory board did not approve the sale of Kingsley Coman to Al Nassr. The pitch was made by the club’s front office.

However, Foot Mercato claims that Nice are also exploring the English market and have made inroads with Palace in their pursuit of 27-year-old Frenchman Edouard. It is understood that Edouard has already turned down a summer switch to La Liga side Girona, but he is keen to return to his homeland and wants to move to Nice.

Kingsley Coman is set to swap Bayern Munich for Al-Nassr in a 30 million euros deal, joining Cristiano Ronaldo and Sadio Mané in Saudi Arabia's star-studded squad as they chase domestic and continental glory.
