Manchester United-linked attacker Kingsley Coman expects to remain at Bayern Munich for the 2021-22 season, according to a report.

Bayern Munich attacker Kingsley Coman - supposedly a transfer target for Manchester United - wants to remain in Bavaria this summer, according to a report.

The France international was understood to be one of the Red Devils' alternatives to Jadon Sancho last summer, and speculation over his future is beginning to heat up again.

Coman has just under two-and-a-half years left to run on his existing contract with Hansi Flick's side, but a recent report claimed that Man United are prepared to double his wages if he elects to move to Old Trafford.

However, Sky Sports News reports that Coman expects to stay with Bayern for the 2021-22 campaign, but no talks have taken place over a possible extension yet.

The same outlet adds that the attacker expects to move to a top Premier League side at some point in the future, but United will also have to fend off interest from bitter rivals Manchester City to secure his services.

The former Juventus man boasts six goals and 11 assists in all competitions this term, but it is currently unclear whether an agreement over a new deal with Bayern can be reached.
