Up until the 2023-24 season, Coman had won a league title in every professional season he had played as a footballer, winning Ligue 1 twice with Paris Saint-Germain, Serie A twice with Juventus, and the Bundesliga eight times with Bayern. That streak was broken when Bayer Leverkusen lifted Germany's top title last term.
