Bayern Say Upamecano Talks Are Underway as PSG and Premier League Suitors Watch

His contract runs to 2026, making January’s pre-contract window a pivotal leverage point.

Overview

  • Sporting director Max Eberl said Bayern are working to secure a new deal for Dayot Upamecano and called outside clubs contacting his agents “part of the game.”
  • Fabrizio Romano and Christian Falk report PSG are closely monitoring the defender, adding to interest from Manchester United, Liverpool, Manchester City and Chelsea.
  • Sources say Bayern are quietly negotiating with the player’s camp, with no intention to sanction an exit as elite clubs weigh potential free-transfer scenarios.
  • Reporting indicates the stalemate centers on renewal compensation, a signing bonus and a release clause, with a figure around €20 million cited by some outlets.
  • Upamecano is under contract until June 2026, allowing foreign clubs to open pre-contract talks from January 1, 2026 if no extension is agreed.
