Dayot Upamecano visits youth team at FC Bayern Campus

Dayot Upamecano paid a visit to the FC Bayern Campus to see the U13 team from the Playse France Elite Académie and learned about the children and teenagers who were undergoing special football training there. This initiative was financed by France internationals Blaise Matuidi, Moussa Sissoko and the Bayern defender himself, who are ambassadors for the Playse France Elite Académie.

It was all about learning, sharing experiences, developing football skills and social interaction – the Playse France Elite Académie learning community aims to combine all of these aspects and offers football training at three academies in France, Congo and the USA, as well as online. The aim is to enable each individual participant to develop both athletically and socially. At Upamecano's invitation, the French academy recently visited the FC Bayern Campus. 

“I’m very proud that everything worked out at the Campus and would like to express my sincere thanks to FC Bayern,” Upamecano said. “This support for the children shows that FC Bayern is one big family. For me, supporting children is a matter close to my heart,” he added.
