France defender Dayot Upamecano claims England star Jude Bellingham is not a threat ahead of their FIFA World Cup quarter-final.
Les Blues continue the defence of their World Cup title but they come up against an England side who have not been shy in front of goal throughout the tournament.
Bellingham has been one of Gareth Southgate's star performers this campaign, which has certainly upped the interest from some of Europe's top teams.

Upamecano, who plays against Bellingham in the Bundesliga, does not believe the 19-year-old will be a major threat.
"I wouldn't say Jude Bellingham is a threat but they have a very strong team. I know Bellingham: Bayern versus Dortmund, it's war," Upamecano said, as per Goal.
"He has got real talent and is a very good player, is gaining in experience as he is playing in all the matches so I think it will be a really good fight in midfield. We will use our experienced players, (Adrien) Rabiot and (Antoine) Griezmann, and count on them."
The Bayern Munich defender did, however, note the threat posed by Bellingham's teammate Bukayo Saka, who as netted three goals this tournament.
Bukayo Saka likes to cut inside. We'll have to make as few errors as possible. We'll be ready. Marcus Rashford is a very good player. I'm not going to be focused on one player though," he added.
"England have some really good players, a really good bench for sure, and have a lot of players who can make the difference. We are going to have to be careful and focused.
"It is going to come down to details so we are going to have to make the least amount of mistakes as possible and I think that team will win the game."
