FC Bayern wants Upamecano: contract extension until 2030 in sight!
The situation surrounding Dayot Upamecano at FC Bayern Munich is moving towards an exciting climax. After a long break due to injury, the French defender has now resumed team training. This return is not only important for him personally, but also for the club, as discussions about a contract extension are already underway. Sports director Max Eberl has announced that both sides are talking intensively about Upamecano's future involvement, with an agreement aimed at before the upcoming Club World Cup. This reports merkur.de.
Upamecano's current contract runs until 2026, but there are plans to extend it until 2030. “An exit is ruled out,” say experts, who confirm that new negotiations have been initiated. Even though the talks have stalled at times - particularly on the subject of the signing fee - the negotiations appear to be showing a positive trend. transfermarkt.de reports that Upamecano and FC Bayern basically want to go into the future together, even if there are still differences on the salary issue.
The role of Upamecano
Coach Vincent Kompany has high hopes for Upamecano, especially his speed, tackling skills and international experience. Despite the injuries that set him back last year, he is expected to be ready for action in time for the Club World Cup. Kompany plans to give Upamecano a central role in the defensive concept. “I can’t imagine not having him in the front row,” said the coach.
Another exciting aspect in the FC Bayern environment is the now perfect contract extension for Alphonso Davies, which was announced a few months ago. He will play for Munich until 2030 and will receive an annual salary of 15 million euros plus bonuses. This is a clear signal that the club is committed to long-term success. Other players such as Jamal Musiala and Joshua Kimmich could soon extend their contracts, while the future of Leroy Sané and Thomas Müller is still uncertain sportschau.de reported.
One can only be curious as to what will happen next. Upamecano is one of seven professionals on the payroll whose contract is only valid for one year. The next few weeks will show whether the talks bear fruit and whether Bayern Munich can not only sign a regular player, but also an important building block for the future.
