Carlo Ancelotti insists Bayern Munich will not sign a replacement for injured star Kingsley Coman

Kingsley Coman has been ruled out for an 'indefinite period of time' after being injured during a training session on Wednesday but Carlo Ancelotti is not actively seeking a replacement.

The 20-year-old France international hurt his ankle during practice but Bayern Munich will not need to sign another winger to replace him according to his new Italian manager.

Ancelotti believes the reigning Bundesliga and German Cup champions have enough strength in depth to cover for Coman's absence.
