According to Biography reporter Falk, Newcastle and Saudi teams are interested in Bayern striker Koeman, and the player's girlfriend is unwilling to go to the Middle East.

It is not clear what specific plans Bayern has for Koeman. As always, the player's personal wishes have a significant impact on their future direction.

It is worth remembering that Bayern has not yet finalized a potential replacement for Koeman. In fact, Eber must first sell the players to strengthen Kompany's lineup. This makes Bayern's situation a little subtle. If players are not sold in time, they are likely to miss their main goals.

Reporter Falk revealed: "If Nico Williams, Balcola and Leo are all non-sale products, then the question is whether Bayern can really find a better player than Koeman in the market. When playing against Oakland City, Koeman was the best player in the starting lineup except Olisse."

"In addition, there is no offer for Koeman. Saudi Arabia is interested, but his girlfriend is unwilling to go there. If Koeman can continue to perform like this in the Club World Cup, Bayern should keep him."

Falke said that Newcastle has expressed interest in signing Koeman. However, it is understood that Koeman has made it privately that transferring to Newcastle this summer is not his primary consideration.

With that being said, the situation seems to have changed as Koeman's partner Sabrajna Deward expressed his reluctance to a possible transfer to the Middle East.

However, it remains to be seen whether this change is biased towards Newcastle or will help Koeman renew his contract with Bayern.
