People made it out to be my dream club. But first and foremost, it's my dad's favourite club. It was always his great wish to see me there someday because he loves the atmosphere at Anfield. He always raved about Steven Gerrard. I was too young to see him play. We didn't even have a TV at home for a long time. I have a lot of respect for Liverpool, but my dream club right now is Leipzig.
Bayern Munich have been locked in contract talks with Dayot Upamecano since the second half of last season. The French defender has entered the last year of his contract, which has led to interest in him from top clubs across Europe. Upamecano feels settled in Munich.

According to Fichajes, Liverpool, Chelsea, and Arsenal are interested in the 26-year-old central defender. He is versatile enough to operate in the fullback areas as well, and he could prove to be an excellent acquisition. Liverpool need to add more quality in depth to the defensive unit. Ibrahima Konate will be a free agent at the end of the season, and they will need to replace him.
