At a press conference this Tuesday, Dayot Upamecano (26 years old) had the difficult task of returning to the hot news of the France team two days before a tense match against Israel (8:45 p.m.) and in the shadow of the The absence of Kylian Mbappé, who was not selected by Didier Deschamps for this November gathering. The central defender of the Blues first mentioned the news of his French captain and hopes that he will return quickly, with the armband on his arm.
“If there is any concern? No. We must not forget what he did for the France team. We lack a little recognition towards him. I hope to see him again very soon. We must not forget that he is our captain. He’s a great player, a friend and I know what he’s capable of. I hope he will take the armband again when he comes back”indicated the Bayern Munich player, refuting the idea of taking over the captaincy: “I’m here to play and I hope to play. I’m coming back from an injury. I prefer to speak on the field rather than off it, I am more comfortable”.
