Body photo: The issue with Yupa’s contract extension lies in the disagreement over the signing fee. Bayern asked Guey in detail about his situation.

Bayern is negotiating to renew the contract with center defender Yu Pamecano. The German media "Sports Bild" stated that the sticking point now is that the player wants a signing fee but Bayern does not want to pay it. At the same time, Bayern senior Freund has been specifically inquiring about the situation of Crystal Palace defender Guei.

The 27-year-old Pamecano's contract ends after this season. Bayern is negotiating with his agent team on a contract extension. However, on a financial level, the two parties have not yet reached an agreement. It is reported that Upamecano's annual salary under the current contract has reached 16 million euros, and the key issue in the contract renewal negotiations is the signing fee.

Bayern's other defender, 24-year-old Alphonso Davis, was previously reported to have received a signing bonus of about 17 million euros when renewing his contract, but now Bayern is obviously unwilling to pay such a high amount again.

Regarding Pamecano's situation, Bayern executives are now placing their hopes on the "Kompany effect." The defender has developed extremely well under Kompany and feels extremely comfortable around him. The hope within the hierarchy is that the defender may be willing to make financial concessions in order to continue working with Kompany. However, the two sides have not yet reached an agreement.

The report stated that sports director Eberl and sports director Freund have not yet submitted specific figures for Upamecano's contract extension to Bayern's supervisory board. This also applies to any potential signings surrounding Schloterback, who is contracted at Dortmund until 2027. As long as a decision on Upamecano's transfer has not been made, Bayern will not take concrete transfer action to sign the Dortmund defender.

Guey's situation is different: the 25-year-old Crystal Palace captain will become a free agent this summer, so Bayern must start paying attention to the defender from now on. It is reported that sporting director Freund has asked his compatriot and Crystal Palace coach Glasner to inquire more specifically about Guey's situation.
