Bayern leaders praised his speed, dynamism and expected immediate attacking impact amid an active transfer window.
Nicolas was immediately keen to play for Bayern, so we're especially pleased that things have finally worked out. Even at a young age, he already has lots of experience at a top international level and has shown his qualities. Nicolas is an ideal fit for the profile we're looking for with his dynamism and presence. He's hungry and will expand our options in attack with his abilities, being an immediate boost for our team,
Nicolas will add another dimension to our attacking play. He covers a wide range of areas. He brings a lot of speed, is dangerous in front of goal and looks for ways to get in behind the defence for the good of the team. He is also an open, positive guy and will have no trouble settling into our team,
