Bayern Munich Grows Impatient with Upamecano's Hesitation in Renewal Talks
Monday 26-01-2026
Dayot Upamecano has returned to being a focal point of controversy within German football, amidst stalled negotiations for renewing his contract with Bayern Munich. These negotiations have started to cause tension within the Bavarian club's corridors, according to the "Fichajes" website.

The website clarified that the French defender has had an official renewal offer for weeks, but his lack of a final response has created a sense of stagnation within Bayern's management, after the agreement was considered close to being finalized.

On the technical front, there is no disagreement within Bayern Munich regarding the importance of Upamecano in the current project led by coach Vincent Kompany. The player is experiencing one of his most stable and consistent periods in performance, and the coaching staff values his leadership, reliability, and pivotal role in the defensive system.

According to the same source, Bayern Munich has clearly defined its stance, stating that the financial offer presented for renewing Upamecano's contract is final and will not be improved, in an attempt to expedite a decisive decision. This comes amid growing reservations within the management, led by sporting director Max Eberl.

Despite the importance of Upamecano's continuity to maintain defensive stability in the Bundesliga, the player's hesitation and leaving the matter entirely to his agent has caused discontent within the club. At the same time, major European clubs are closely monitoring his contractual situation, while Bayern Munich awaits the final decision without being prepared to wait for long.
