(C)Getty ImagesWHAT TCHOUAMENI SAID
Tchouameni insists that was not the case, as it was actually two centre-halves on the books at Bayern Munich that saw the England and France internationals argue the cases for their fellow countrymen. Tchouameni has told RMC Sport: “We weren’t talking about Kylian Mbappe and Erling Haaland. We were talking about Eric Dier and Dayot Upamecano. Jude was talking about Dier and I was talking about Dayot. It will sell less but it’s the truth.”
He added on the debate that never happened with Bellingham: “I prefer Mbappe. Haaland is a great player, but I prefer Mbappe.”
GettyWHAT NEXT?
France are hoping to include Mbappe in their squad for the 2024 Olympic Games in Paris, but it has been suggested that Real Madrid will look to block those plans – with the prolific frontman also set to represent his country at Euro 2024 this summer.
