Bayern Munich star Dayot Upamecano wants to the best…and score some goals, too

Bayern Munich center-back Dayot Upamecano wants to be known as the best defender of the world. To do that, though, the Frenchman understands that he has to play a complete game. As such, Upamecano knows that he has to contribute a goal every once in a while, especially with his aerial dominance. So…will we see a new, goal-hungry approach from the center-back? Don’t count on it. “That’s a goal of mine. But when you play with Harry Kane, scoring goals isn’t something you think about too much,” Upamecano told L’Equipe with a laugh (as captured by @iMiaSanMia). “Personally, I’d rather leave a match without conceding a goal than score one. But I know that scoring goals is what I’m lacking (5 goals in 167 games with Bayern).” You know, Upamecano has a point. Leaving the scoring to the fancy pants attackers. Meanwhile, he and his backline mates can just hold down on the fort on the backline in front of Manuel Neuer!
