Coman happy to wait at Juve

By Football Italia staff

Kingsley Coman says he is happy to wait for his chance at Juventus, as he believes that his patience will be rewarded in the long run.

The 18-year-old has featured only sporadically since joining the Bianconeri from Paris Saint-Germain in the summer.

However, he has vowed to continue working hard in training and not kick up a fuss about his perceived lack of playing time.

“Lately, it's true, I haven't had much playing time, but I'm not worried,” Coman has told L'Equipe this week.

“I'm working hard in training and I knew very well that I could be in this situation. I only need 10-15 minutes per game to prove myself.

“The Coach isn't there just to please me or make me happy. I signed with Juventus for five years and set myself a goal of 15-20 appearances earlier in the season. I can achieve this.

“I am used to this and have been in far worse situations before now. I learned to be patient.

“Tevez, Llorente and the other forwards are all very good players. They have experience of playing at the highest level.

“But in training, I feel that I'm not far away.

“My teammates? They all give me lots of advice. Every time Uncle Pat [Evra] each day tells me to do my best and prove that I can play and help the team's fortunes.”
