Choupo-Moting content backing-up Lewandowski at Bayern
Eric Maxim Choupo-Moting said on Monday he is happy to play understudy to Robert Lewandowski after arriving at the European champions on a one-year deal.
Lewandowski, who has netted five goals in as many games so far for Bayern this season, came off with an ankle knock in Poland’s goalless draw with Italy on Sunday in Gdansk.
The UEFA men’s player of the year is an injury concern for Wednesday’s Nations League game against Bosnia and Herzegovina in Wroclaw.
Cameroon forward Choupo-Moting is set to make his Bayern debut in Thursday’s German Cup first round tie against fifthtier minnows FC Dueren.
