Kingsley Coman (26) has returned to team training at FC Bayern. The timing is quite something
“He still needs two to three weeks”, Kingsley Coman said almost exactly three weeks ago when he left the Allianz Arena after the 2:0 against Barcelona. The Frenchman had not played because he had previously torn a muscle fibre.
Coman took part in team training for the first time on Monday and, according to coach Julian Nagelsmann, received a round of applause from his team-mates.
Whether he will be used as early as Tuesday night in the Champions League match against Viktoria Plzen is likely to be clarified this afternoon when Julian Nagelsmann speaks at the press conference.
At least Coman – provided he does not suffer a setback – can be scheduled for the top match in Dortmund on Saturday. The timing is good, after all, with Joshua Kimmich and Thomas Müller two key players in quarantine at least until Thursday.
