KINGSLEY COMAN NEWS

Creates three chances Coman created three chances and shot four times (once on goal) during Wednesday's 4-0 win over Benfica.

Impact Coman was excellent Wednesday, and truly deserved a goal from his performance. He was a terror down the left side of midfield and had plenty of excellent chances. In the end he was unable to get on the scoresheet, but it was still an encouraging performance, where he looked like himself. Next up is a Saturday clash with Hoffenheim.

Impact Coman won't be an option until after the international break, which makes sense. At this point, it's unknown how long he can play until he can actually get on the pitch, but a couple weeks of training will help. That said, he's played just 46 minutes in three appearances this season because of a variety of minor injuries.

Impact Coman's heart condition may have played a part in the fact that he has yet to make a start for the club this season, logging a combined 46 minutes off the bench in which he registered four shots (zero on target), seven crosses (one accurate) and two chances created. With Coman unavailable, Eric Maxim Choupo-Moting could see increased opportunities for minutes.

Traveling to Barcelona Coman (calf) is in the traveling squad for Tuesday's match against Barcelona. According to manager Julien Nagelsmann, "Coman is in the squad but not an option to start."

Impact Coman was expected to miss a week and this return puts him at the end of that projection. Of course, given his nagging injuries in the early season, he's not expected to play a huge part Tuesday with a bench appearance likely.

SEPTEMBER 13, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

Expected to miss a week Coman is expected to miss a week because of a calf issue suffered with the France national team, reports RMC Sport.

Impact Fortunately for Coman, this appears to be a minor calf issue and he should be back in training within a few days. He's struggled to stay healthy in the early season and that's led to just 38 minutes on the pitch for Bayern in league play, meaning his absence won't change anything for the club.

SEPTEMBER 7, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

Dealing with calf issue Coman went 64 minutes in Saturday's draw against Ukraine, but he has a little problem in his calf, according to France boss Didier Deschamps.

Impact Coman has dealt with a few nagging injuries in the early season and it looks like he has another one while with France. At some point, he'll have need to rest and get back to 100 percent fitness or these constant muscle issues could continue over the next few weeks.

Available versus Hertha Coman (glutes) will be in contention versus Hertha Berlin on Saturday.

Impact Coman missed the club's previous clash with FC Koln on Aug. 22 due to his glut injury. Considering the forward logged just 15 minutes off the bench in the season opener, fantasy players probably shouldn't be expecting him to crack the starting XI any time soon. As such, Coman figures to provide mid-range fantasy value at best.

Back in training Coman (glutes) trained Tuesday ahead of Saturday's match against Hertha Berlin, reports Bild.

Impact Coman has been in and out of the squad the first month of the season because of a couple injuries, but it looks like he's getting better. It may make more sense for him to rest completely until after the international break, but if he feels well enough he could be an option Saturday.

Out Sunday Coman (undisclosed) will miss Sunday's match with Koln.

Impact Coman still "has some internal bleeding in his glutes" and will be out Sunday to avoid aggravating the injury. The winger is part of and incredibly deep Munich attack, which limits his minutes, even when healthy. He will target a return Saturday, against Hertha Berlin.

Suffers knock in Cup match Coman suffered a knock and was forced off in the 49th minute of Tuesday's Super Cup match against Borussia Dortmund.

Impact Coman entered the season with a rib injury and now it looks like he suffered another issue. He managed 15 minutes in the league opener and another issue will likely keep him on the bench for Sunday's game against Koln, giving Leroy Sane another start.

Registered four crosses Coman recorded four crosses (zero accurate), one shot (off target) and one chance created coming off the bench versus Gladbach on Friday.

Impact Despite playing just 15 minutes, Coman managed to produce the second most crosses in Friday's match. With his rib injury seemingly behind him, Coman should challenge the likes of Thomas Muller and Leroy Sane for a spot in the starting XI, perhaps as early as Sunday's matchup with FC Koln.

On bench Friday Coman (ribs) will be available off the bench against Monchengladbach on Friday.

Impact With Coman still recovering from his rib injury, it shouldn't come as a surprise to see Serge Gnabry get the start for the season opener. Once back to 100 percent, Coman should challenge for regular minutes in the starting XI and figures to be a top-end fantasy option given his offensive upside.

AUGUST 13, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

Takes training pitch Coman (ribs) participated in Monday's first-team training session and is on track to be ready for Friday's match against Monchengladbach.

Impact Coman started 23 of his 29 Bundesliga appearances last year in which he registered five goals on 52 shots (19 on target), 93 crosses (27 accurate) and 45 chances created. Even if cleared to play, the forward may be held in reserve for Friday's season opener against Monchengladbach.

AUGUST 9, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

Struggling with injury Coman is running on the pitch, but he continues to deal with breathing problems from bruised ribs, according to Bild.

Impact Coman has less than a week to get back to full strength, which means he probably won't be ready to start the Aug. 13 opener. While he's in training, it'll be tough for him to get his ribs at 100 percent match ready given his current limited situation.

AUGUST 5, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

Suffers injury in friendly Coman appeared to suffer "bruised ribs" during Saturday's friendly against Napoli, according to manager Julian Nagelsmann.

Impact Coman made 29 league appearances last season but has recently been hampered by injuries throughout the summer and may not be fully fit when the coming season begins. Based on the timing, he has a couple weeks before the opener against Borussia Monchengladbach on Aug 13.

Impact Coman came into Monday's game as a halftime substitute and he was dangerous as France fought back into and then collapsed at the end of their Round of 16 clash against Switzerland, his best chance coming when he hit the post just before the regulation whistle. But he suffered an injury in extra time and had to be taken out before the penalty shootout that was won by his opponents. He ends the tournament with zero starts, but he posted four shots and four chances created in the 90 minutes that he did feature in.

Everyone trains Coman participated in Sunday's training session, manager Didier Deschamps told the media Monday.

Impact Coman wasn't risked in the final pre-Euro friendly last week against Bulgaria, but his name didn't pop up in the press so it's likely that he's been in good shape for some time. Much like Ousmane Dembele, Coman is an exceptionally talented winger, though the recent preference to a midfield-heavy formation may not leave any room for Coman on the flank.

Doesn't play in friendly Coman (muscular) wasn't in the squad for Tuesday's friendly against Bulgaria.

Impact Coman wasn't even risked Tuesday, which may not be a good sign with France's first group match a week away. His muscle injury isn't believed to be serious, but considering he's already a bench option, he may not be asked to start if he also has a muscle issue.

JUNE 8, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

Dealing with muscle discomfort Coman has been in limited training because of some muscle discomfort, but he should be an option for Tuesday's friendly against Bulgaria, reports L'Equipe.

Impact Coman played about 30 minutes off the bench in last week's friendly, but it looks like he tweaked a muscle in training since. It doesn't appear serious, but if he isn't used in Tuesday's friendly, he probably won't be asked to start France's opening group match on June 15.
