Bayern Munich's Jonathan Tah admits to being 'very, very happy' about Dayot Upamecano's imminent contract extension
"It is impressive just how quickly Jonathan Tah and Dayot Upamecano have formed a convincing partnership. Tah needed a few games to really find his feet following his summer move from Bayer Leverkusen, but when he got going, he and Upamecano comfortably established themselves as the two first choice center backs for head coach Vincent Kompany. But, in light of Upamecano's expiring contract, there were serious doubts that the partnership would last more than a solitary year."
"reliable sources are reporting that the Frenchman has now secure a fresh new deal recently, a Sky Sport reporter was willing to query the Germany international on his thoughts on an extended stay after such a long period of waiting for contract discussions to be over. @iMiaSanMia captured Tah's cautious response: "It felt like I told him 100 times a day to extend his contract. If he has now agreed, then I am very, very happy about it because he is extremely important for us.""
