#2 Kingsley Coman
Kingsley Coman (born 13 June 1996) is a French professional footballer who plays for Bayern Munich on loan from Juventus as a winger.
He moved to Juventus in 2014 on the expiration of his contract with Paris Saint Germain. He won Serie A and the Coppa Italia in his first season in Italy. In August 2015 he was transferred on loan to Bayern Munich. Coman has represented France from under-16 to under-21 levels.
At the age of 16 years and 8 months, the French player became PSG’s youngest ever player when he came off as a substitute against Sochaux in February 2013. This meant he picked up a League 1 winners medal that season, and his two appearances during the following campaign meant he collected a winner medal for 2013/14 too.
When his contract with PSG ended in 2014, it made way to interest from a number of clubs including Arsenal, Tottenham, and Newcastle. He turned down all offers, including one from PSG, to take up the opportunity to join Juventus in Serie A, citing the club’s rich history as the reason behind the decision: Coman said, “I chose to join Juventus because of their history. It was the club of Platini, Zidane and Trezeguet.”
Coman joined Paris Saint Germain’s youth academy in 2004, and nine years later he made his professional debut. He came on as a substitute towards the stoppage time replacing Marco Verrati.
On 15 January 2015, Coman scored his first goal in the 78th minute in the Coppa Italia, against Verona in which the match ended 6–1 in favour of Juventus.
On 6 June 2015, Coman appeared as a substitute for Juventus in the Champions League Final as they were defeated 3–1 by Barcelona.
