"That's for others to decide, but playing against Dayot is definitely uncomfortable. I've known him for so long, I've trained with him for so long now in Salzburg, Leipzig , and now at Bayern,"
"And if you run into him or he steps on your foot, it can get quite uncomfortable."
"If one messes with either of these players, they will wake up very sore the next morning."
Konrad Laimer and Dayot Upamecano both developed at Salzburg and Leipzig before joining Bayern Munich. Both are soft-spoken off the pitch yet play with aggressive, physical intensity that unsettles opponents. Laimer says playing against Upamecano feels uncomfortable due to their long shared history across Salzburg, Leipzig and Bayern, and notes that incidental contact can be painful. Both players have built reputations for making opponents physically and mentally uncomfortable during matches. Their style combines disciplined defending with robust physicality, leaving opposing players sore and wary when facing either Laimer or Upamecano.
