Overview

• Bayern have presented a new proposal to Dayot Upamecano, with the next move viewed as the player's decision, according to reporting relayed by Frankfurter Rundschau.
• Negotiations spanned months and were close between late March and early April before stalling over remaining details.
• The central sticking point is a hefty signing bonus, with reports indicating Upamecano’s camp is benchmarking Alphonso Davies’ roughly €17 million payment, while base-salary terms are largely aligned.
• Sporting director Max Eberl says the club wants to keep the defender and will handle talks quietly, as coach Vincent Kompany is a strong supporter.
• Upamecano’s deal runs to 2026, allowing him to speak with other clubs from January, and interest has been reported from Liverpool, PSG, Real Madrid and Manchester United.
