Nagelsmann must make the most of Bayern-bound defender against
Liverpool before planning another rebuild
Happy Valentine’s Day. At midday local time on Sunday Bayern Munich put out a statement confirming that, as suspected, they would sign Dayot Upamecano on a five-year contract starting on 1 July. It was not a surprise, but it was a reminder to RB Leipzig of the natural order of things – that for all the progress they have made since promotion in 2016, and even for the fact that they are emerging as the perennial champions’ closest challengers this season, there is still a significant gap. A gap which, they must ponder, will be hard to ever bridge.
