A striker from the France team made a rather surprising confession at a press conference this Wednesday.
In its ranks, the France team currently has some statistical beasts. Olivier Giroud is the top scorer in the history of the selection, while Antoine Griezmann is the best passer. Not to mention the inevitable Kylian Mbappé, captain called upon to break all records given his dizzying passing times.
For his part, Kingsley Coman is not part of this category. The Bayern Munich striker only has 5 goals in 51 caps, after 8 years in the France group. An assessment that he puts into perspective in his own way. Because Coman assures him: he does not live for numbers. “ Statistics are a goal, I know, but it is not a priority for me, explained the Bayern Munich striker at a press conference this Wednesday. My goal is to help the team win in the role I am asked to play. It’s the most important thing whether it’s a goal, an assist, runs or defensive work.“.
“It’s always been a goal. I give my all in the French team, Coman continued.. You definitely have to be decisive as often as possible. But above all I want to help the team and be impactful in my role. The objectives are different in selection. When we come into play and lead 1-0, we sometimes have to know how to do another job to keep this score. When we start a match, we want to impact it more”concluded the German champion.
