"Bayern remain relaxed regarding Dayot Upamecano's future and are relying on Vincent Kompany as their 'X factor' to convince the defender to stay. Within the club, it is said that Kompany is the main factor behind Upamecano's current form and that he can convince him that the footballing aspect is more important than a couple extra million. Upamecano is a player that needs the full trust and support of the coach in order to perform consistently, which he currently has in Kompany."
"Bayern Munich is reportedly feeling confident about its ability not only to extend star center-back Dayot Upamecano, but also to do so on financial terms amenable to the club's bosses. But it is hard not to see a player of Upamecano's caliber as having plenty of options - and being well within his right to explore that at a juncture in his career where can command such heavy interest in his services."
Bayern Munich is confident in its ability to extend Dayot Upamecano while keeping the financial package within club limits. The club views Vincent Kompany as the decisive influence able to persuade Upamecano to prioritize sporting considerations over marginal salary increases. Kompany is credited internally with improving Upamecano's form and providing the full trust and support the defender requires to perform consistently. Bayern are relaxed about the negotiation because of that coaching relationship. Fit and comfort are acknowledged as crucial to a player's success. Despite the club's optimism, Upamecano retains multiple options and legitimacy to consider interest from other clubs.
