Dayot Upamecano Commits Future To Bayern Munich With New Deal

Dayot Upamecano has put pen to paper on a new long-term contract with FC Bayern Munich, committing his future to the Bundesliga champions until 30 June 2030.

The 27-year-old centre-back has become an important player at the Allianz Arena since arriving from RB Leipzig ahead of the 2021 to 2022 campaign. In that time, he has lifted three Bundesliga titles and three domestic Supercups.

Chief executive Jan-Christian Dreesen said: “Dayot Upamecano has matured into a top-level player with us. We’re delighted he’ll continue his journey at Bayern, also proving once again our status in international football. His clear personal commitment is a strong message for our sporting course and for the good togetherness within the team and the club.”

Board member for sport Max Eberl added: “Dayot Upamecano is another central figure in our team who we’ve been able to extend with. A squad needs anchor points, and we’ve got the next with Dayot. The question often isn’t who you sign but who you develop. Dayot has matured into a top international player here at Bayern. We’re looking forward to continuing our journey together.”

Upamecano, who has made 180 appearances for Bayern and earned 35 caps for France national football team, said: “I’m really happy to be staying at Bayern and continuing to play in this team. We’ve got big goals together.”
