At the Bundesliga opener, Kingsley Coman was condemned to watch due to a red suspension. But the winger will soon be back on the pitch for FC Bayern. The Frenchman is particularly looking forward to playing with newcomer Sadio Mané.
FC Bayern has to change its offensive after Robert Lewandowski’s departure to FC Barcelona. In the Supercup against RB Leipzig (5: 3) and in the Bundesliga start at Eintracht Frankfurt (6: 1), the record champions were already extremely accurate. Star purchase Sadio Mané was the center of attention.
Kingsley Coman is delighted with his new teammate. “I think it’s really great,” said the 26-year-old in an interview with “Daily MailOn Mané’s signing: “I’m a competitive guy and I really want us to have the best possible team.”
The Senegalese is “one of the best” offensive players, said Coman. “If you play with a player like that, you can really improve a lot,” explained the right winger. “I know that we can grow as people and as a team”.
Coman: This is how FC Bayern can absorb Lewandowski’s departure
After Robert Lewandowski’s departure, the other FC Bayern players should “definitely score more” goals. “I don’t think there’s an attacker who can score as often as Lewy,” Coman said. “He’s been the best attacker over a number of years, but if we all score five or ten more goals, it all comes down to that in the end Same out.”
Coman, who was missing at the Bundesliga opener due to a red card from the previous season, wants to help compensate for Lewandowski’s departure: “I think I’m a big, big player in my position. That’s how I play football. I really think so , that I’ve gotten to a point where I want to be and now I just want to take the next step.”
