"After it looked like things were all wrapped up between Bayern Munich and Dayot Upamecano last week, things have gone radio silent. Because of that, Bayern Munich officials have been asked about the status of things a few times this week already. Bild (via @iMiaSanMia) caught up with board member for sport Max Eberl and chief executive officer Jan-Christian Dreesen about the the situation and neither offered anything concrete:"
"Dayot Upamecano has yet to put pen to paper on a new contract despite the verbal agreement Max Eberl was asked after last night's game if something could still go wrong: "I don't think so. As long as the contract isn't signed, there will be no announcement. That's normal in life." Jan-Christian Dreesen: "We said that we made promises to each other, that the signature is now still missing, and that we will get it done in the next few days."
"Is there a chance that Upamecano and his representatives are having second thought? Maybe, but it is doubtful considering the fallout that would occur after Upamecano, himself, asked for his offer to be put back on the negotiating table after the club pulled it.

After apparent agreement, Dayot Upamecano has not yet signed a new contract with Bayern Munich despite a verbal commitment. Bayern officials have remained publicly silent while facing repeated questions about the situation. Max Eberl stated that no announcement will be made until the contract is signed. Jan-Christian Dreesen confirmed mutual promises and said the missing signature should be completed in the next few days, most likely this week. A last-minute reversal by Upamecano or his representatives is considered unlikely given the consequences and the fact that Upamecano asked for his offer to be reinstated after the club withdrew it.
