In a significant move for Bayern Munich, French defender Dayot Upamecano has committed to a four-year contract extension, securing his place with the club until 2030. The deal, announced Friday, brings to a close longstanding rumors of his departure to potential suitors like Real Madrid and Paris Saint-Germain.
