"According to a report from Tz journalists Mano Bonk, Philipp Kessler, and Hanna Raif (as captured by @iMiaSanMia), the agents for Bayern Munich center-back Dayot Upamecano suffered at least one "defeat" in the negotiations, as the agreement - allegedly - includes a signing bonus of just €16 million rather than €20 million that Upamecano's camp wanted. Maybe more importantly, the bonus will be prorated over the length of the four year contract rather than paid in a lump sum, one-time fee:"
"While his estimated new annual salary of approximately €20m gross remains unchanged, Dayot Upamecano's agents suffered a 'defeat' in the negotiations. They were demanding a €20m signing fee in one instalment. But now they had to settle for 'only' slightly more than €16m, which will be spread over the duration of the new contract in several instalments. What remains to be seen is if there is a "voidable years" situation with the bonus payment should any release clause get triggered."
Dayot Upamecano is set to earn an estimated annual salary of approximately €20m gross under a four-year contract. The agreed signing bonus is slightly more than €16m and will be paid in several instalments spread across the contract instead of a €20m one-time payment. There is uncertainty whether a release clause could create a "voidable years" situation affecting bonus payments if triggered. The prorated, reduced bonus represents a financial advantage for Bayern Munich, while attention remains on the contract's release clause and its fee.
