Man United were linked with signing Upameca during recently-closed summer transfer window as well but player's valuation was a stumbling block in negotiations. Upameca's previous deal h a £54 million (€60m) release clause but with clubs willing to fork out that amount, Frenchman decided to extend his current stay until 2023. However, reports from German news outlet BILD claim that Upameca's new deal has a release clause of around £36.5m (€40m) next summer.

Upameca's release clause is considered a win-win situation for everyone as potential suitors will be able to bid for defender at a much lower price and Leipzig, who previously ran  risk of losing him on a free transfer, can get a substantial fee. However, due to Upameca's release clause and impressive displays over past few seasons, Man United aren't only club interested in signing Frenchman.
