"Earlier in January, Bayern were in advance talks with Upamecano. Real Madrid had dropped interest in the defender and Bayern were cautiously optimistic about closing the deal sooner rather than later. Bayern reportedly had a framework agreed for a new long term deal with Upamecano. They have also reportedly agreed to insert a release clause in his contract. The only thing left is the final green light left from Upamecano to conclude the negotiations."
"Die Roten are getting impatient since Upamecano is yet to give a final confirmation even though the club has agreed all demands of the defender. According to Bild, Bayern have now set a deadline of mid-February for Upamecano to make a decision. The Bavarian club needs a final decision so that they can accordingly plan their summer transfer window. Upamecano has a great sporting project and quality coach at Bayern, who has managed to get the best out of him over the last 18 months."
Bayern Munich prioritized contract renewals over new signings in the winter window, with Dayot Upamecano the top focus. The French defender has under six months remaining and will become a free agent at season's end. Bayern held advanced talks, Real Madrid stopped pursuing him, and a framework with a release clause was agreed; only Upamecano's approval remains. The club set a mid-February deadline for his decision to enable summer transfer planning. Upamecano benefits from a strong sporting project, an effective coach, and the club's competition on all fronts. Jonathan Tah urged him to sign and said Upamecano helped him settle after joining from Bayer Leverkusen.
