Bastian Assomo has reportedly impressed Bayern Munich head coach Vincent Kompany, according to a Sport BILD article. 

The German with Cameroonian backgrounds talent made a strong impression right from his first pre-season training session.

Kompany has been paying close attention to him, offering him advice on his positioning and even joining a session defending against him. 

Assomo, standing at 1.90 meter tall, has considerable strengths in his finishing and agility despite his powerful build.

The 16-year old is currently focusing on refining his technique and is mainly planned for Bayern's U-23 side this coming season.

Having trained several times with the first team and impressing Kompany, it's conceivable he could get more chances under the Belgian.
