Man City Battle Liverpool for Bayern’s Musiala 

English press reports revealed that Man City, the treble-winners, are reportedly sharpening their focus on a potential acquisition of Bayern Munich’s prodigious talent, Jamal Musiala. They’re not merely resting on their laurels but actively monitoring the 20-year-old sensation, piecing together a comprehensive profile of him. Speculation has been rife about the contract scenario of Musiala with Bayern. He currently has a deal with the Allianz Arena, netting him a handsome £83,000 weekly, but this contract will be up for renewal come June 2026. Not one to be left behind, Liverpool are also reportedly conducting their homework on the young star. According to Football Insider, the Reds have shown keen interest, echoing Man City’s sentiment on Musiala’s immense potential. Diving a little deeper into the situation reveals Musiala’s growing concerns. Sources indicate that he’s somewhat disgruntled with his inconsistent starting berth in Thomas Tuchel’s lineup. This is despite being labeled by some in the recruitment sector as a “potential world beater”. In fact, this season has seen the youngster’s involvement take a dip, with veteran Thomas Muller often favored in starting roles. Yet, it’s worth noting that Musiala was instrumental in Bayern’s Bundesliga win the previous season, amassing an impressive tally of 16 goals and 16 assists across various tournaments. Musiala's current contract at Allianz Arena expires in June 2026, according to which he receives 83 thousand pounds per week. The 20-year-old was the most involved in Bayern Munich's victory in the German League last season, scoring 16 goals and providing 16 assists in 47 matches in all competitions.
