Dayot Upamecano - Soccer News, Rumors, & Updates

Helps to clean sheet Upamecano registered one shot (one on goal) in Thursday's 2-0 win against Morocco.

Impact Upamecano would have a solid day in defense as France earned a clean sheet, playing the full 90 minutes while earning three tackles (two won) and four clearances. He would also come close to scoring on his one shot, connecting on an early header from a cross before a wonderful save from Bono. Upamecano has only left the field for 14 minutes this World Cup, helping the team to all four of their clean sheets.

Real Madrid receive blunt Michael Olise transfer message from Bayern Munich & France defender Dayot Upamecano as rumours of record-breaking €223m deal rage

Solid outing in round of 16 Upamecano had four tackles (three won), four clearances and four interceptions in Saturday's 1-0 win over Paraguay.

Impact Upamecano stood out for his one-on-one efficiency as he won seven of his 10 duels in addition to his diverse defensive production during the victory. He also earned a clean sheet for the third time across five starts in the 2026 World Cup. He's likely to stay in the initial lineup and play as many minutes as possible in the next round against Morocco, looking to contribute through pass accuracy and a variety of defensive stats.

Strong outing in victory Upamecano recorded two shots (zero on goal) and five clearances in Tuesday's 3-0 victory against Sweden.

Impact Upamecano put in an all-around effort, though the highlight of his performance in terms of fantasy value was the clean sheet during his fourth consecutive World Cup start. The center-back is in good form after tallying 11 clearances over the latest pair of games, however his passing numbers have dropped when facing more challenging opponents. He'll likely stay heavily involved in defensive duties as France look to advance further in the knockout rounds.

Six clearances in win Upamecano recorded six clearancesand two interceptions in Friday's 4-1 win against Norway.

Impact Upamecano registered two interceptions, six clearances and one block across his 76 minutes in Friday's 4-1 win over Norway before being replaced by Ibrahima Konate as coach Didier Deschamps made late substitutions, contributing to a defensive display that was largely comfortable until Thelo Aasgaard's first-half goal exposed a moment of collective defensive disorganization that Upamecano was directly involved in. The Bayern Munich centre-back completed 39 passes and was composed for the majority of the match, but the defensive lapse on the Norwegian goal will be a moment he will want to correct heading into the knockout rounds when the quality of the opponents increases significantly.

Brillant defensive outing Upamecano registered one tackle (one won), two clearances and two interceptions in Monday's 3-0 victory over Iraq.

Impact Upamecano once again partnered William Saliba in the heart of France's back line, building on the dominant display he delivered against Senegal when he led all players in touches and defensive actions. He played a key role in a shutout effort against Iraq, a side that generated just 0.6 expected goals over the full 90 minutes, and finished with one tackle won, two interceptions and two clearances. Upamecano and France have now punched their ticket to the Round of 32 and will square off against Norway on June 26 with first place in Group I on the line.

JUNE 22 • ROTOWIRE

Unbelievable performance in win Upamecano registered six tackles (five won), one clearance and three interceptions in Tuesday's 3-1 victory versus Senegal.

Impact Upamecano was one of the few bright spots for France in the first half alongside William Saliba, anchoring a back line that came under heavy pressure with Senegal's best opportunity stemming from a Kalidou Koulibaly clearance that nearly caught Les Bleus off guard before things settled down after halftime. He played a major role in tightening things up defensively as France's second-half resurgence showed on both ends of the pitch, finishing with six tackles (five won), three interceptions and one chance created. Upamecano was arguably the biggest reason France stayed composed and found a way back into the match, as the center-back duo was the only unit performing at the required level during a difficult opening 45 minutes.

JUNE 17 • ROTOWIRE

Anchor in France's back line Upamecano has been named in France's World Cup squad and is expected to start at the heart of the French defense.

Impact Upamecano wrapped up the season with two goals, three assists, 68 tackles, 40 interceptions and 81 clearances across 36 appearances (33 starts), anchoring Bayern Munich's back line with a steady mix of speed, strength and dominance in the air as part of a defense that gave up very little all year. His chemistry alongside either William Saliba or Ibrahima Konate gives France one of the toughest center-back pairings in the tournament, blending youth, athleticism and high-level technical ability. He heads into the World Cup looking to elevate his game on the biggest stage after delivering consistent, high-end performances throughout the Bundesliga season.

Impact Upamecano delivered his most important contribution of the season in Tuesday's 5-4 defeat at Parc des Princes against PSG, rising at the back post to nod in Joshua Kimmich's curling free-kick delivery in the second half to make it 5-3 and trigger a breathtaking three-minute comeback spell in which his side scored twice to claw it back to 5-4. The centre-back also made several key defensive contributions, recording three tackles, three interceptions and one block during the match. Upamecano scored his first Champions League goal of the season and has now registered one goal and two assists across 11 appearances in the competition.

Provides assist in victory Upamecano assisted once to go with two shots (zero on goal) and two chances created in Wednesday's 4-3 victory over Real Madrid.

Impact Upamecano came up huge with a decisive clearance to deny Vinicius Junior before launching a surging, mazy carry from center-back that ended with a pinpoint pass to set up Harry Kane's 38th minute equalizer. He won four of his five tackles, added a clearance and three interceptions, and still managed to influence the attacking phase with two shots and two chances created. His ability to play through the lines from deep was a major factor in Bayern consistently slicing through Real Madrid's defensive structure across both legs.
