Overview
- Multiple outlets report Bayern and Dayot Upamecano have a verbal agreement on a multi‑year renewal, with an announcement expected within days.
- L’Équipe details a contract to 2030/31 worth up to €20m gross per year, a €20m signing fee, and a €65m release clause activated from summer 2027.
- Real Madrid are intensifying efforts for Borussia Dortmund’s Nico Schlotterbeck after Upamecano moved off the free‑agent track, with Dortmund valuing him above €50m and some reports citing up to €70m.
- Dortmund sporting director Sebastian Kehl said discussions on Schlotterbeck are ongoing and that a decision is expected in due course rather than late in the summer.
- PSG considered Upamecano but deemed the package too expensive, while German reports suggest Bayern could still revisit Schlotterbeck depending on Kim Min‑jae’s future or a potential free transfer in 2027.
