The likes of Chelsea, United and Bayern Munich have been credited with an interest, but Leipzig are unlikely to consider any offers.

According to Fabrizio Romano, Leipzig are prepared to determined to keep hold of Upamecano irrespective of the transfer offer on the table.

Upamecano has publicly stated that he has been in contact with other clubs and Romano claims that Leipzig may only consider his sale next summer.
