MANCHESTER UNITED have been handed a huge boost in their pursuit of Bayern Munich star Kingsley Coman.
The 25-year-old has two years left on his contract but is yet to agree terms over a new deal.
And the German giants are keen to cash in on the winger this summer rather than lose him on a free, the Daily Mail reported.
A move away from the Allianz Arena would suit both parties as Coman has previously expressed his desire to seek new pastures elsewhere.
In the summer, Coman and his family were reportedly trying to force a move to England with United being his club of choice.
Bayern’s refusal to meet the 25-year-old’s wage demands is said to be one of the main reasons that he wants to leave the club.
However, United allegedly have no issues with providing the French star the pay packet he desires.
Coman has won league titles with Paris Saint-Germain, Juventus and Bayern, and the Red Devils will hope he can help them do the same.

But United’s Prem rivals Chelsea and Liverpool have also waded into the battle for Coman’s signature.
The Reds and Blues are said to be keeping a close eye on Coman’s latest contract developments with Bayern, according to The Mirror.
Thomas Tuchel’s side were linked with Coman throughout the recent transfer window but were reportedly put off by Bayern’s £86million price tag.
All the clubs chasing Coman will also be closely monitoring his health after the star underwent a heart operation last month.
