Dayot Upamecano is staying put at Bayern Munich, with a new contract extension nearly wrapped up.
The club and the 25-year-old defender have agreed on his future salary, bringing the deal close to the finish line, reports Bild.
Only the signing bonus remains to be finalized, though that’s not expected to cause any issues.
Upamecano has long been a key figure at the back for Bayern, and the club intends to keep it that way. New manager Vincent Kompany has reportedly made it clear he wants the Frenchman in his plans for the upcoming season and beyond.
While the exact length of the new deal hasn’t been revealed, the talks are said to be progressing smoothly. Both sides appear eager to continue the partnership, with Upamecano poised to play a central role under Kompany’s rebuild.
His steady presence and physical style have made him a cornerstone of the defense, and Bayern are keen to lock that down as they look to bounce back from a trophyless campaign.
