Bayern Munich and France national team centre-back Dayot Upamecano has made a definitive decision about his future, bringing an end to weeks of speculation. The French defender has opted to continue his journey with the Bavarian club after reaching a full agreement to extend his contract.

According to information from Fabrizio Romano, all the details of the new deal have been finalized. Now, only the official signing remains, which is just a matter of time.

A decisive choice for Bayern's stability

Transfer market expert Fabrizio Romano clarified on his ( X ) account:

"Dayot Upamecano is set to officially sign his new contract with Bayern Munich, tying him to the club until June 2030.Exclusive information: the agreement for this new deal is 100% done, and Upamecano is ready to sign.The contract will include a release clause. Several clubs were interested, but no offer was made by Real Madrid."
