Carlo Ancelotti says Joshua Kimmich can become "the new Philipp Lahm" for Bayern Munich.

Lahm will retire at the end of the current season.

"He has enough quality to play in many different positions, not just in midfield. He also has a strong personality and a strong character. I love players with such great professionalism, like he has."

Kimmich is just 22 and has quickly established himself for Bayern and the German national team.
