Bayern Munich's Coman is regarded as one of the most promising players of his generation

A dazzling young player who has played for the biggest clubs already. At the age of 23, Kingsley Coman has played for Paris Saint-Germain, Juventus, and Bayern Munich. Coman has won the Ligue 1 twice, the Serie A once and the Bundesliga four times. 7 league titles at the age of 23 is something astonishing. But is it going to be a case of 'career ruined by injuries'?

Coman was scouted by Paris Saint-Germain, with whom he joined the youth academy in 2004. After nine years in the club's youth system, Coman made his professional debut for PSG in 2013. A move to the Italian champions in 2014 did not work out very well for the young winger and he was loaned to Bayern Munich in 2015. He was runner-up to compatriot Anthony Martial for the 2015 Golden Boy.

It has been tough for Coman to settle in with Bayern even after almost five years. The winger has been a victim to many injuries and has missed around 80 games for the club. Regarded as one of the most promising young players of his generation, Coman is a clever, talented and technically gifted winger. He possesses good dribbling skills, vision, acceleration and dangerous speed.

While he still has areas to improve in his game, the main issue for Coman remains his injury problems. The 23-year old would be determined to gain consistency in his game time and performances, and follow the footsteps of club legends Arjen Robben and Frank Ribery to become a world-class player.
