Lucas Chevalier Sparks Media Buzz: Dayot Upamecano Opens Up About PSG Rumors

The Chevalier Controversy Continues

The media is revisiting the situation surrounding Lucas Chevalier. The PSG goalkeeper is currently facing challenges due to his recent performances and a controversy over a like on a pro-RN post. Chevalier was visibly affected by the situation, especially as he reacted at 4 AM without consulting his community manager or the club. The newspaper L’Equipe notes that Chevalier was raised to believe that extremes lead to nothing good, which explains his sensitive reaction. Life is tougher in Paris, but he has support, including from Karim Boukrouh, his former coach at Marck near Lille, who stated, “That’s not his mentality; he’s not that kind of person,” as reported by the Parisien. Chevalier may need to publicly address this controversy sooner rather than later.

Upamecano Talks About PSG

Dayot Upamecano recently gave an interview to L’Equipe. He stated, “I am one of the best,” acknowledging that he has reached a new level in his career. As an undisputed starter for club and country, Upamecano is set to be a key figure in the upcoming transfer window since his contract with Bayern is expiring. He mentioned, “My agent is handling things. We will make the right decision. I’m well-advised and focused on my season and goals for club and country. I’m happy at Bayern; I have a great coach and good relationships with my teammates.” Reports suggest that Upamecano has verbally agreed to terms with Real Madrid. However, PSG is still being linked to the situation, and he said, “I’m calm about it. I’m under contract with Bayern and focused on my objectives. I appreciate interest from other clubs.“

Spain Hopes for Messi’s Return

In Spain, the unexpected possibility of Lionel Messi returning is generating excitement. The prospect of the legendary player returning to the Camp Nou after nearly four years since his departure is thrilling for fans across Catalonia and the country. Messi discussed this with Sport, leading to speculation about a potential return to Barcelona. A temporary move back to Barcelona during the MLS offseason, from December to February, is technically feasible, but there are several conditions. As the MLS registration opens in January, this complicates matters, especially given Barcelona’s financial struggles. Nevertheless, reports suggest that Barcelona is considering a six-month “last dance” for Messi before the World Cup, similar to Thierry Henry’s brief return to Arsenal.
