Fichajes reports that with his contract nearing its end, the French center-back is seeking a salary of €16 million per season from any club looking to sign him.

Bayern Munich, Real Madrid, and Barcelona are all keeping a close eye on the situation, which could have a significant impact on their defensive plans for the summer of 2025.

The report also mentions that Bayern Munich admits its negotiating position is far from ideal. Upamecano is entering the final months of his contract and has yet to show a clear willingness to extend.

Moreover, the German club, having faced a similar scenario with Alphonso Davies, knows that a misstep could mean losing one of their most valuable defenders on a free transfer.

Bayern Munich have kept in touch with the player’s representatives, but the 16 million euros per season figure is seen as too high for their wage structure. Upamecano, meanwhile, expects to be treated as a key figure in the squad, believing his recent performances justify that status.
