(Photo by Alex Grimm/Getty Images) | Getty Images According to a report from Bild journalists Julian Agardi and Michel Schröer (as captured by @iMiaSanMia), Ismaël Saibari is wasting no time making an impression at Bayern Munich.The Moroccan has reportedly impressed internally with how quickly he has settled into the squad and, perhaps more importantly, how quickly he has started performing. For a player who is still at the very beginning of his Bayern Munich career, that is an encouraging sign.Vincent Kompany is said to be particularly impressed by three aspects of Saibari’s game: his pace, physicality and finishing.Those qualities give Bayern Munich another dimension in attack. Saibari has the ability to stretch defenses with his speed, compete physically with defenders and still provide a genuine threat in front of goal. That combination is particularly valuable for a team that wants to maintain a high tempo and attack with multiple players.What makes the early reviews even more notable is the reported consensus inside Bayern Munich that Saibari is already viewed as an upgrade on Nicolas Jackson. That is a significant assessment considering how little time Saibari has actually had in Munich.Of course, it is far too early to make definitive judgments about the transfer. Saibari still has to prove that he can maintain this level over an entire season and handle the pressure and expectations that come with playing for Bayern Munich.But the early signs are certainly encouraging.If Kompany can continue getting the best out of Saibari, Bayern Munich may have found a player capable of becoming a major contributor very quickly.Join the conversation!Sign up for a user account and get:New, improved notifications system!Fewer adsCreate community postsComment on articles, community postsRec comments, community posts
