According to tz, the 27-year-old is asking for an annual salary of €16 million, with bonuses that could reach €2 million, plus a sizeable signing bonus. However, the real sticking point concerns the release clause. Upamecano wants a buyout clause set at €65 million, which would be activated from the second year of the new contract—something Bayern are not yet willing to accept.

Despite all this, optimism remains in the Bayern camp. Upamecano feels comfortable in Bavaria, even as European heavyweights like Paris Saint-Germain and Real Madrid continue to closely monitor the situation.
