Bayern and Upamecano Agree in Principle to Extension With €65m Release Clause From 2027

After months of negotiations, the pact offers near-term defensive stability at a premium price.

Overview

  • Reports say the new deal lifts Dayot Upamecano’s pay to about €20 million per year and includes roughly a €20 million signing bonus.
  • Multiple outlets report a €65 million exit clause that becomes active in summer 2027 after the first year of the new term.
  • The contract is expected to run until 2030 or 2031, with the signature and announcement anticipated in the coming days.
  • Bayern executive Jan-Christian Dreesen called the offer “extraordinarily good,” set a deadline, and signaled the club would not improve the terms further.
  • Estimates put the total package between roughly €100 million and up to €120 million over the term, while Bayern continue to evaluate center-back options such as Nico Schlotterbeck.
