After joining Italian club Sampdoria, Koman made his Serie A debut on 7 April 2007 starting in the home match against Torino,[1] recording the assist for the match's only goal, scored by Emiliano Bonazzoli. He then led Sampdoria to win the 2007–08 Campionato Nazionale Primavera title, and also took part at the 2008 UEFA European Under-19 Championship captaining the Hungary under-19 national team.
