Release clause for Chelsea target revealed as player set for move away from parent club

Chelsea’s pursuit of RB Leipzig defender Dayot Upamecano has been given a huge boost as the defender’s release clause has been revealed.

Dayot Upamecano has been impressive for RB Leipzig ever since he burst onto the scene and his development has been monitored by top clubs across Europe.

According to The Daily Mail, Chelsea are not the only club trying to sign Dayot Upamecano who is currently the most sought after talent in the world.

Premier League champion Liverpool have been linked with Upamecano and some notable clubs in Europe have also been linked with a move for the young defender.

However, Chelsea will be coughing out some huge sum of money if they are to secure a deal for Upamecano.

According to transfer expert Fabrizio Romano the Bundesliga defender has a 42 million euro release clause, and is expected to leave the club next summer transfer window…

Chelsea’s hope of signing him this summer might be dashed but the Blues will be eager to secure a deal with young defender.

With Chelsea stockpiled with defenders at Stamford Bridge, it will be a bad decision to bring another on board without offloading some players at the back.

Upamecano will want playing chances and not be relegated to the bench, so he might not consider a move to Stamford Bridge.
