Manchester City Transfer News: Latest Rumours on Kingsley Coman, Moise Kean

Manchester City are reportedly keeping an eye on Bayern Munich starlet Kingsley Coman amid rumours his loan spell with the Bavarians isn't going too well, while the club is also following up on Juventus youngster Moise Kean.

According to Calciomercato (h/t Daily Star's Marc Williams), City boss Pep Guardiola is interested in a reunion with Coman, having worked with the Frenchman at the Allianz Arena last year.

Coman was one of the most exciting youngsters in the Bundesliga last year, but he has struggled to break into Carlo Ancelotti's Bayern team after suffering an injury in pre-season.

Bild (h/t Goal, via the Sun's Anthony Chapman) now reports Ancelotti isn't a fan of the former Paris Saint-Germain starlet and is even considering sending him back to Juventus. He's in the middle of a two-year loan spell with Bayern, with the club holding an £18.5 million option to make the deal permanent at the end of this season.

With Arjen Robben, Franck Ribery, Thomas Muller and Douglas Costa all capable of playing out wide, the 20-year-old Coman faces a lot of competition for playing time―the same issue that plagued him in Turin and eventually led him to Munich.

He was sensational at times during his first season with the Bundesliga giants, as you can see in the video below:

Given Coman's tremendous potential and great success last season both domestically and at UEFA Euro 2016, it's unlikely Bayern will send the France international back to Juventus. At the very least, they could make a profit on the £18.5 million fee the option would cost, with the likes of City willing to pay more for his raw potential.

As noted by Bleacher Report's Adam Digby, he would likely be available should he return to Italy as well:

Coman is blessed with incredible speed and a fantastic right foot built for firing in crosses. The winger loves to take on his man and penetrate the box, but he's at his best when he creates a bit of space and crosses the ball into the area towards running forwards.

Bayern used that ability to devastating effect last year, but the likes of Robben and Ribery have more raw scoring potential, which is a better fit for Ancelotti's system built around strong, penetrating wing play.

Guardiola already knows how good Coman can be, having worked with him for a full year, so it wouldn't be a surprise to see City go after the winger if his loan spell with Bayern does turn sour.

Elsewhere, TuttoMercatoWeb (h/t Manchester Evening News' James Robson, Rob Pollard and Ciaran Kelly) reported Guardiola is also keeping an eye on Juventus starlet Kean, a 16-year-old prodigy who has quickly risen through the Bianconeri academy.

The forward scored 24 goals in 25 matches with the under-17 side last year, a remarkable tally for a youngster making his debut at that level. He's also impressed as a member of Italy's youth setup and is believed to be close to Juventus' senior squad.

Per the report, he's yet to sign a professional contract with the Old Lady, opening the door to a departure if the two sides can't come to an agreement.

Here's a look at some of his highlights:

Kean is a talented prospect frequently compared to Mario Balotelli for his playing style and physical strength, and as long as he doesn't sign for Juventus, clubs like City will keep an eye on proceedings.

The Bianconeri will do what they can to keep him around, but his agent Mino Raiola may believe his future is best served elsewhere. If that place is the Etihad Stadium, City could sign one of the world's top prospects in his age group on the cheap.
