This season has seen Koundé struggle to secure playing time under coach Hansi Flick, finding himself lower in the pecking order behind Eric Garcia. He has openly acknowledged that his current status as a substitute reflects his recent performances.

In addition to Arsenal, Chelsea, Liverpool, and other unnamed clubs are reportedly keeping a close watch on Koundé's situation, which might lead to potential transfer discussions in January.
