Julian Green’s impressive performances for the U.S. Men’s National Team has seemingly caught the attention of Bayern Munich manager Carlo Ancelotti.
Speaking at his pre-match press conference ahead of Bayern’s league match against Eintracht Frankfurt on Saturday, Ancelotti said that the 21-year-old will make his Bundesliga debut “in the coming games.”

The Italian tactician also feels that Green’s best position is at center forward, and that he’s spoken to Jurgen Klinsmann about his development.
Green could make his debut as early as Saturday against Eintracht Frankfurt, but with a Champions League game versus PSV on Wednesday followed by a crucial league match at Borussia Monchengladbach three days later, the American could feature at some point this month.
The forward has not played in a Bundesliga game for Bayern’s first team. He has made three total appearances in all competitions for the club since 2014.
