Kingsley Coman is undoubtedly one of the most exciting youngsters in world football right now.

Last summer, he admitted that he wanted to leave Bayern, after being frustrated under Ancelotti, but he is enjoying life at the club now under Heynckes. Since Heynckes took charge, only three players: Christian Pulisic (39), Bruma and Leon Bailey (both 38), have completed more successful take-ons than Coman (34).

In his six games under Ancelotti, he had created just five chances and provided only one assist. His take-on success rate was just 64%, but under Heynckes he has created 17 chances in 13 games. He has scored three times and provided two more assists during this run.

His performances have convinced Bayern to offer him a new five-year deal, which he signed last December.
