FC Bayern: Dayot Upamecano dissatisfied – Considering leaving in the summer

Tuchel decisive

After the signing of Konrad Laimer (26; free transfer from RB Leipzig) and the forthcoming deal with Raphaël Guerreiro (29; free transfer from BVB), those responsible at FC Bayern still have a few talks ahead of them. In midfield, Marcel Sabitzer (29) and Ryan Gravenberch (21), who were last loaned to Man United, should reorient themselves after the two additions, but it could be on the defensive, where the duo Laimer and Guerreiro can also play on the outside lead to an even greater upheaval.

The number of defenders willing to change is increasing. Benjamin Pavard (27) and Lucas Hernández (27) are being courted and reportedly want to leave. According to “Bild”, the latter wants to make a final decision by Tuesday evening. Alphonso Davies (22) has recently flirted with other top clubs like Real Madrid. In addition to Noussair Mazraoui (25), according to information from “Kicker”, Dayot Upamecano should also be dissatisfied with the situation at Bayern.

According to the report, the 24-year-old can also imagine a change. Two years ago, Upamecano came to Munich from Leipzig for a fee of EUR 42.5 million with ex-coach Julian Nagelsmann. Although the Frenchman was set even after his surprising departure, he has not yet been able to completely convince at Bayern. Those responsible should appreciate Upamecano’s qualities, but the sometimes gross mistakes were just as impressive.

Tuchel decisive for a possible farewell to Upamecano from Bayern

For example, the fatal loss of the ball in the first leg of the quarter-finals of the Champions League, which led to 2-0 for Man City (0-3). Upamecano must minimize errors of this kind in the future. Thomas Tuchel, who clearly criticized Upamecano for the mistake after the game, also said that he had “played top games” recently and also “played very well” against the Skyblues, also indicated that the Frenchman was going between extremes , “apart from the two or three situations where he took the decision at a great risk. But okay, he’s still young, let’s move on.”

According to the report, Upamecano’s future is said to depend on that same Tuchel. The Bayern coach decides with his personal planning games whether the 14-time national player will push for a farewell. If this were to happen, potential buyers would have to spend a lot of money. Unlike Pavard and Hernández, who are entering their final year of contract, Upamecano is still tied until 2026. Before the big Bundesliga update on June 22, his market value is estimated at 60 million euros.
