"Bayern have pushed themselves to their financial limits in their contract offer to Dayot Upamecano. The offer has been on the table for weeks, but the Frenchman is still hesitating to sign it. Impatience is growing behind the scenes at the club. The supervisory board, in particular, is irritated by the stalling tactics of Upamecano and his agent. The question being asked at Säbener Straße is: What more does Upamecano want?"
"Under Vincent Kompany, he has become a key player and one of the best defenders in the world. Kompany is 'rolling out the red carpet' for him. Bayern Munich is reportedly offering a salary worth €20 million per season, a signing bonus worth €20 million, and a release clause able to be triggered as early as 2028. Meanwhile, Upamecano's camp wants the release clause to be activated in 2027."
