Lille star Nicolas Pépé could 'play a good role' at Bayern, says his coach

Lille's Nicolas Pépé would be a good fit for Bayern München, says his coach, Christophe Galtier.

Bayern München would be a good choice of club for Nicolas Pépé, says Lille coach Christophe Galtier.

The Lille star has been linked with some of Europe's biggest clubs, and Galtier believes he would be wise to join the Bavarians.

While Galtier doesn't mention Bayern explicitly, it's obvious that he's talking about the Bavarian club who may want to sign a new winger in the summer as Arjen Robben and Franck Ribery are both set to leave.

"I know that a big club from Germany will lose two wingers in the summer. It's one of the biggest clubs in the world, and I'm sure that Pépé could play a good role at the club," Galtier told Telefoot, according to various German news outlets.

Pépé, 23, has played 28 games for Lille this season, scoring 17 goals and making 11 assists.
