Kingsley Coman has dismissed rumours of a move to Arsenal, saying he has had no contact from the Premier League club.
The France international made just 10 Bundesliga starts for Bayern Munich in 2017-18 and has failed to make himself a starter in the German champions’ line-up since joining from Juventus in 2015.
With New Arsenal manager Unai Emery reportedly interested in signing the 22-year-old, Coman was asked whether he was certain to be playing for Bayern in the upcoming season, to which he replied: “Normally, yes.”
When asked to explain his comments, the France international said: “Normally means normally. I am at Bayern now.
“I extended my contract for five years, so normally I will stay here.
“I had no contact [with] Arsenal.”
The winger made a second-half appearance in Bayern’s 3-1 win over Paris Saint-Germain in the International Champions Cup on Saturday, and said he was working his way back to form and fitness amid fierce competition for places.
“We are all there to help the team and of course, there are some who will play more than others. But above all, I will focus on me, give everything to find my level again.
“Inevitably, we always want to play as much as possible. Not only this year, but also last year, and the year before.
“After that, there is a coach and the coach will make his decisions. We must accept it but necessarily, we always want to play as much as possible.”
