The Leipzig defender has opened the door to a possible transfer this summer

RB Leipzig defender Dayot Upamecano is not closing the door on a summer move after being linked with a number of Europe's top clubs, Barcelona included. 

Upamecano has a contract with the German side until 2021 and a release clause of 60 million euros, but his latest comments suggest he could consider a switch at the end of the season. 

Speaking to RMC Sport, he said he's focused on Leipzig as they battle for the Bundesliga title and prepare for the round-of-16 in the Champions League, although he's ruling nothing out. 

"There are clubs that want me," he said. "I will speak with my agents and my parents at the end of the season and we will make the right decision." 

Upamecano, who is also wanted by Bayern Múnich and Arsenal, has been tracked by Barça for a while and is seen as a possible replacement for Samuel Umtiti, who's not been at his best for a while.
