26-year-old Bayern Munich central defender Dayo Upamecano is demanding a significant salary increase to extend his contract. This was reported by Euro-football.ru.
According to L'Equipe, the French player wants to earn a salary that reflects his position in the team. Upamecano is satisfied with his current situation at the club and has a good relationship with head coach Vincent Kompany.
However, he believes that his current salary does not match his role as an important player for the team. Negotiations are currently ongoing between the parties, and it will take some time to reach an agreement.
Last season, Dayo Upamecano played 38 matches for Bayern Munich, scoring two goals and providing two assists. His current contract is set to last until the summer of 2026.
The Transfermarkt website values the player's market price at 50 million euros. Upamecano's salary demands are an important issue for the club's management, as a decision will be made regarding his future with the team or a potential move to other clubs.
