Slovakia provide Wales' first Group B opponents in Bordeaux on Saturday and their coach Jan Kozak and star player Marek Hamsik have understandably identified Bale as Wales' key threat but Coleman believes being the centre of attention will not unsettle Bale at all.
He said “We've grown used to that really, once you become the most expensive player in the world and you're playing for Real Madrid - he's won two Champions Leagues in the last three years - it's normal for the opposition to look at Gareth Bale and pay him a lot of attention. They need to pay him a lot of attention. So we're used to it, he's used to it. Because luckily for us, if you've got a player who's playing where he plays every week, coming into this tournament, he's used to all the spotlight. He's used to having the eyes of the world on him and everything he does, on and off the pitch. He's looking forward to this and so are we”
