Real Madrid, Liverpool, PSG and Bayern Munich, among others, are closely following Upamecano, a player Chelsea have also been asking about in recent hours. The London side would be prepared to pay the 45 million euros of his cancellation clause.

Chelsea have joined the long list of teams interested in Dayot Upamecano in the last few hours, and have reportedly stepped forward at Frank Lampard's request. 

Daily Star assures that the "blues" have joined the interest of clubs like Real Madrid, Liverpool, PSG, and Bayern Munich. It seems that the manager has asked his team to evaluate the possibility of signing the 22-year-old centre-back from RB Leipzig. 

The source adds, moreover, that Chelsea would be prepared to pay for his termination clause, which is approximately 45 million euros. 

Upamecano has already started his fifth season with RB Leipzig, with whom he has accumulated 134 official matches. So far this season, he has played a total of 21 matches, 14 of them in the Bundesliga.
