Upamecano to decide future in January?

According to a recent report from Bild, RB Leipzig defender Dayot Upamecano could make a decision on his future in January.

The impending January transfer window is set to be an important one with a string of high profile players teasing the idea of a move away from their current clubs. Upamecano, as we all know, is one of them, with the defender being one of the most wanted players in world football right now.

The youngster has a £40 million release clause in his current contract which could well be triggered early next year after another impressive run of form with the German club.

It’s going to be one hell of a tug of war if there are multiple clubs involved, and it’s feasible to think that Leipzig themselves could wind up being the big winners if they’re able to cash in on him for a strong amount – especially in the current climate.
