In his latest column, Bayern insider Christian Falk reported that if Upamecano and the German club don’t reach a contract extension by January, the defender will be free to open talks with other teams over a pre-contract.
“It is true that Liverpool are looking at Dayot Upamecano,” Falk wrote. “Bayern have been trying to give Upamecano a new contract for months. I think it’s coming up to a year of talks! And the time is running out, because next summer he’s a free agent, and it makes him so interesting for many, many clubs. Liverpool, of course, have the same situation with Ibrahima Konate – he’s also going to be a free agent next summer.
“And yes, if Liverpool can get a player like Dayot Upamecano for free, that’s pretty good business. That said, every top club in the world is looking at him; I heard that Real Madrid is very, very interested in him. Also, the player is understood to be on the list at Manchester United and PSG.”
