Bayern Munich's Dayot Upamecano ruled out with knee issue
In an official press release, Bayern Munich have revealed that Dayot Upamecano (26) will miss several weeks of action after sustaining a knee injury.
The centre-back played the whole 120 minutes as France overcame Croatia in the quarter-final of the UEFA Nations League at the Stade de France on Sunday night. He even netted the winning spot-kick to seal France's progression to the final four, which will take place in the summer.
However, Upamecano has now suffered a setback. Upon his return from international duty, it has been revealed that he is set for a period on the sidelines. Bayern Munich have confirmed that the centre-back has loose joints in his left knee, which will require treatment and a period of recovery.
Bayern Munich have not further specificed his period of absence, however, it can assumed that his participation in the UEFA Champions League quarter-final against Inter Milan is in doubt.

Manchester City, Juventus Await PSG Standout to Make Major Decision Over Contract
PSG have a big call to make—and clubs like Manchester City are likely paying close attention: Is Gianluigi Donnarumma still their long-term solution in goal? He's under contract through 2026, but interest from top European sides is building. Since joining from AC Milan in 2021, Donnarumma has come through in big moments—making crucial saves and coming up big in penalty shootouts—but his time in Paris hasn't been without hiccups. Advertisement There have been some high-profile errors, including the infamous mistake against Real Madrid in the 2022 Champions League, that still raise questions about his reliability under pressure. Now, with PSG headed to the Champions League final, the spotlight is squarely on him again. A strong showing could solidify his place as the club's No. 1. If not, and with his contract winding down, other clubs will be ready to make a move. Could Manchester City swoop in for PSG standout?Football Italia reported on Saturday that Donnarumma's contract is winding down. Still, despite interest from Manchester City, Bayern Munich, Juventus, and Inter Milan, he plans to meet with PSG first to discuss a new deal. Advertisement His current contract runs until June 2026, but PSG have offered him a new deal with a much lower salary than the €10 million per season he was earning after leaving Milan in 2021. In his latest column for Ensemble PSG, Robin Bairner, the chief editor at Football Transfers, wrote about Donnarumma's future and whether PSG should offer him a new contract. 'There's a debate to be had about the No.1, although that's for another day. Despite shaky shot-stopping statistics overall this season, [Donnarumma has] been statistically poorer than Matvey Safanov. 'For example, his Champions League performances suggest that he's the perfect keeper for PSG. He's shown a capacity to raise his level for the big games, which has been precious, even vital, to the team's European progress. This should be enough to see him rewarded with a new deal.'
