Bayern Step Up Upamecano Contract Talks, No Agreement Announced

The defender’s importance under Vincent Kompany, coupled with wage demands and outside interest, has kept negotiations protracted.

Overview

  • Dayot Upamecano said he feels comfortable at Bayern and confirmed his agent is in ongoing discussions with club officials.
  • Sporting bosses Max Eberl and Christoph Freund signaled they want to extend his deal and emphasized his importance, with no deadline set.
  • His contract runs until summer 2026, and talks that had progressed stalled over financial terms before being scheduled to resume, according to BILD.
  • Spanish outlet fichajes.net reported both sides are close to a long-term extension, a claim not confirmed by the club or the player.
  • Real Madrid, Paris Saint‑Germain, Manchester United and Barcelona are reported suitors, sharpening Bayern’s resolve to avoid another Alaba‑style free exit.
