"The negotiations surrounding Dayot Upamecano (26), whose Bayern Munich contract expires next summer, have dragged on for months. The supervisory board currently has no figures available. In the past, there has been controversial discussion within the board regarding Max Eberl's (52) handling of expiring contracts. The case of Alphonso Davies (24) in particular caused discontent: The player and his agent were allegedly promised figures that the supervisory board had not yet approved."
"Ultimately, an extension until 2030 was agreed upon in February, but a hefty signing bonus is said to have been paid - reportedly a €17 million signing bonus. This figure could now become both a crucial factor and a problem in the Upamecano transfer saga: The defender feels comfortable in Munich, and the club even claims that it was only through this atmosphere and the support he received during difficult times that he developed into his current class."
Contract negotiations for Dayot Upamecano have dragged on for months as his Bayern Munich contract expires next summer. The supervisory board currently lacks approved figures for the renewal. Past controversy over handling expiring contracts involved Max Eberl and prompted discontent among board members. Alphonso Davies received a contract extension to 2030 in February amid reports of a €17 million signing bonus that had not been pre-approved by the board. That reported bonus now complicates the Upamecano situation. Upamecano feels comfortable in Munich and credits the club atmosphere and support for his development. His agent Moussa Sissoko is experienced, and clubs including Liverpool, Inter Milan, Real Madrid, and Chelsea are interested.
