He has the quality and the experience to play for the biggest clubs in the world, and he could make an instant impact in the Premier League.
Man United could use Dayot Upamecano
Apart from his defensive quality, he will add composure and control to the back line as well. He is at the peak of his career, and this could be the right time for him to take on a new challenge and move to the Premier League.
Manchester United are one of the biggest clubs in the world, and the opportunity to join them will be hard to turn down.
Real Madrid keen on Upamecano
