Dayot Upamecano (Bayern Munich)
September 2025
Bayern Munich have revived contract talks with Dayot Upamecano, fearing Real Madrid could sign him on a free when his current deal ends in 2026. Negotiations stalled earlier this year, prompting Bayern directors to schedule fresh meetings with his representatives. Bayern are wary after losing Leroy Sane for free and David Alaba to Madrid in 2021. Upamecano, a vital figure under Vincent Kompany, is central to the defense, and securing his extension is a strategic priority to avoid another costly departure.
