Report: Bayern Munich optimistic on Dayot Upamecano, but have no plans to pay 20 million signing bonus
"Bayern have no intention of paying Dayot Upamecano the €20m signing fee he's demanding, which other clubs - such as Real Madrid - would be willing to do in order to get him as a free agent. Bayern are still cautiously optimistic, and there's still a chance Upamecano would end up extending his contract, but the club has to make a fundamental decision regarding the player's financial demands, and consider the cost of a possible replacement."
"That number could be a massive sticking point for Upamecano who - allegedly - has already become comfortable with Bayern Munich's salary offer. The signing bonus appears to be very import to the Frenchman. With Real Madrid and Liverpool among the teams interested in the 26-year-old, Bayern Munich will likely have to decide whether that €20 million figure is worth losing Upamecano over."
