"Considering the quality and age of Upamecano, Bayern are eager to extend his contract. The French defender has eight months left on his current deal. He feels settled in Munich, but talks have reached an impasse between two parties due to the wage demands of the French defenders. The complex negotiations regarding contract renewal between Upamecano and Bayern have allowed other clubs to explore a move for next summer."
"Like Upamecano, Konate has also entered the final year of his contract at Liverpool. As per this report, Real Madrid are willing to pay €20 million signing-on bonus to Upamecano for a long-term contract. Real Madrid can initiate talks with Upamecano for a pre-contract agreement when the transfer window opens in January. The French defender is free to talk with the clubs that want to sign him on a free transfer in the summer."
Bayern Munich have been dominant offensively and defensively this season, conceding only four goals in seven Bundesliga games. Dayot Upamecano has been a defensive mainstay, quickly linking with Jonathan Tah, and has benefited from Vincent Kompany extracting consistency. Upamecano has eight months left on his contract and feels settled in Munich, but wage-demand differences have stalled renewal talks. The impasse has attracted interest from other clubs. Real Madrid have reportedly prioritized Upamecano over Ibrahima Konate and are prepared to offer a €20 million signing-on bonus, with the option to open pre-contract talks in January while Bayern continue negotiations.
