Manchester United and Liverpool urged to sign Dayot Upamecano

Player recruitment expert David Webb has urged Manchester United and Liverpool to make a move for RB Leipzig star Dayot Upamecano.

The centre-back has been linked with most of Europe’s top clubs following some hugely impressive performances for the Bundesliga outfit.

Webb, who has held recruitment positions with the likes of Tottenham Hotspur and Bournemouth, has tracked Upamecano’s progress since first seeing him play for France U17s.

“His pedigree over the last few years has developed into a top central defender, given his physical profile, and he’s very comfortable on the ball,” Webb told Sky Sports.
