Bayern Munich center-back Dayot Upamecano plays his international ball for France, so he is very familiar with many members of Paris Saint-Germain’s squad.
Heck, Upamecano is even friends with some of them. When it comes down to which team is favored and whether he will be chatting up some of his boys, Upamecano had his game face on.
“At this level, there are no favorites,” Upamecano said (as captured by @fcbinside_de via @iMiaSanMia). “(On Saturday), I have no friends. Both teams want to progress.”
If you are a Bayern Munich fan, you have to love that mentality heading into this Club World Cup showdown.
