Over the past few days , Bayern had noticeably increased the pressure on the player’s side. Both internally and externally, those responsible made it clear that their patience was exhausted and that planning security was their top priority. On Monday evening, things finally turned around. Upamecano informed Munich that he would like to accept the offer on the table

Remarkably, Bayern had withdrawn their offer in writing shortly beforehand. Only then did the 27-year-old make a personal call with his final commitment to the club. Despite this unusual course of events, it is considered extremely unlikely that FC Bayern will now allow the deal to fall through. The sporting signal is too clear, Upamecano is too important for the team’s statics

The key details of the new contract

The figures that have been the subject of speculation for weeks are now fixed. Upamecano is set to sign a contract until 2030 and, with an annual salary of just under €20 million, will become one of the top earners in the squad. He will also receive a signing bonus of around €20 million

It was precisely this hand money that had recently caused tensions. While the player’s advisors pushed for a one-off payment, Bayern wanted to spread the sum over the term of the contract. The background is obvious: Upamecano has secured a fixed exit clause of €65 million, which will take effect from the summer of 2027. If he had drawn this and received the hand money immediately, the club would have had to pay around €40 million for the centre-back within a year

With the agreement that has now been reached, Bayern are sending out a clear signal: Dayot Upamecano will remain the focal point in the center of defence – and the record champions are gaining much-needed planning security for the coming years.
