Bayern Munich: Four early predictions for a busy 2021
Bayern Munich sign Dayot Upamecano in summer
Yes, Bayern has already insisted that the financial situation will be much worse next summer since fans are yet to return to the Allianz Arena, but signing Dayot Upamecano from RB Leipzig is too good an opportunity to miss out next summer.
Upamecano has been coveted by multiple top clubs in Europe. At the age of 22, he has consistently delivered good performances in the Bundesliga. Last season, he shone at the European stage with a standout performance in the quarter-final against Atletico Madrid.
The French defender still has few areas to work on as he often has lapses in concentration. However, his best years are ahead of him, so Die Roten will getting a player that can help them in achieving goals in the present and future. Moreover, he will be available for an affordable fee of €40 million due to a release clause. In the current market, quality central defenders are expensive, so Upamecano’s transfer fee in the future might look like a bargain.

The German Champions have been linked with a shrewd move of signing a young left-back in Omar Richards to replace Alaba. However, signing a promising center-back such as Upamecano will make sure that the defensive department of the squad is set for years, so I think Die Roten will end up signing him next summer.
