Kahn thrilled with Coman's extension

Bayern Munich CEO Oliver Kahn couldn't have been more pleased that winger Kingsley Coman agreed to a contract extension this year.
In an interview with Kicker, Oliver Kahn waxed lyricals about Kingsley Coman signing a new deal to stay at Bayern Munich until 2027:

"I'm happy that King continuously developed in the past years. He's absolutely world class and an attraction for the fans - one of the best players in the world technically in fast pace, one of the best dribblers and always a threat."

After serving a two-game suspension to start the season, Coman has a goal and three assists in just a few appearances. The 26-year-old versatile Frenchman now reportedly earns around €17 million per year with his new contract.

Kahn added that, "I feel that the contract extension gave him another boost. We told him again how valuable he is to us and how happy we are that we have him."
