"So...what gives? If nothing is changing, why is Upamecano delaying his decision? Is he hoping that Bayern Munich will cave-in to his demands? Is Upamecano taking Bayern Munich's offer and shopping it to other clubs to see what more he can get elsewhere? Something is up...but what? Well, Football Espana offered this blurb, which indicates that Real Madrid could be looking to convince Upamecano to eschew a new deal with Bayern Munich and make the free move to Spain this summer:"
"This comes in the context of Real Madrid reportedly stepping up their efforts to bring in a defender in the summer. It is not clear exactly whom their top target is, but it is certainly enough to make Bayern Munich nervy, given Upamecano is one of the players on their shortlist. The two clubs have done battle for several players in recent history too, including David Alaba and Alphonso Davies."
"The Associated Press also indicated that both Real Madrid and Paris Saint-Germain are interested in Upamecano. Something is amiss with this situation. For weeks, it was reported that deal was close to being done, with both sides sounding very confident about the situation. Now, well, Bayern Munich is reportedly " irritated ", while Upamecano and his camp have been radio silent."
Dayot Upamecano has not signed a new contract with Bayern Munich and is reportedly sitting on an unchanged offer that has been in place for weeks or months. The decision delay has prompted speculation that he may be seeking better terms or entertaining offers from other clubs. Real Madrid is reportedly interested and could persuade Upamecano to move to Spain on a free transfer, while the Associated Press names both Real Madrid and Paris Saint-Germain as suitors. Bayern Munich is reportedly irritated by the silence from Upamecano and his camp. Bayern has set a deadline for a decision, making the transfer outcome uncertain.
