I dont know but his name has been linked to loads of top clubs for years now, hence why you have heard of him before even though hes only 20 years old.

The guy is bullying grown men and is fast as f**k for a CB.

There will be mistakes just as de ligt makes mistakes but you only need to look at RBs defensive numbers with him included to see hes more than competent.

Even if we dont get him, we need someone like him but at max 23 to 24 that can really settle and then grow with us and we need it right now.

Tbf I'm at the stage where I think we need a CB more than tierney as kola could probably do a job at least over the season or until Jan.

I've no faith in mustafi and chambers to do the same tbh.

Tah is a quality young defender, I would be much happier bringing him in for the kind of money being mentioned for Upamecano.

i dont watch bundesliga so i wouldnt know they are both good on fifa and fm but tbh i like the height of tah as compared to upemacano though i agree for 70m we should be getting someone with great experience. koulibaly was my first choice for a while but i trust raul . I would be more intrigued with this signing if sven endorsed it cause i really trusted him.

Upamecano has won 68.1% of his aerial duels in the Bundesliga last season.

For reference, Hummels is 3 inches taller and has won 68.8%.

People underestimate how much a strong leap can make up for a lack of height.

Also worth noting DU is still 3 inches taller than Kolo Touré who always held his own in the Premier League.

German press are all saying no chance, he's got two years on his contract and a 92m release clause, with RB Leipzig back in the CL group stages they are looking at big money income this year, it would take a huge bid to get him ... unless of course he's asked to go.
