Bayern Munich is in the mix to sign Christian Kofane, a 19-year-old attacker from Bayer Leverkusen, but they are concerned about competition from Arsenal. Kofane has made a significant impact this season, scoring five goals in just eight Bundesliga starts. While Bayern's sporting director Christoph Freund acknowledged interest in Kofane, he indicated that the club is also looking at other players, including Hoffenheim's Fisnik Asllani. Arsenal is reportedly preparing to make a formal bid for Kofane, which could complicate Bayern's pursuit. Leverkusen values Kofane between £52.3 million and £61 million, but his agent, Eric Depolo, believes he is worth as much as £87.3 million. This situation is further complicated by Arsenal's need for a reliable striker, especially given Gabriel Jesus's injury issues.
