One report claims that Jamal Musiala has been “on Liverpool’s list for a long time.”. One of Europe’s best young performers, the 20-year-old is one of the favorites to win this year’s Golden Boy award, though Jude Bellingham is probably going to beat him.
In his 133 games with Bayern Munich so far, Musiala has scored 32 goals and is already a mainstay for the senior Germany team. Liverpool is reportedly one of the “top clubs” in England that are interested in signing the Stuttgart-born attacking midfielder, who has played for England at the Under-21 level twice and briefly with the Chelsea academy. Musiala’s contract negotiations with Bayern have reportedly stalled, despite the report claiming that the Reds have been considering the player for “a long time.”. Although Musiala’s current contract does not expire until 2026, plans to start negotiations on a new one back in April were reportedly shelved.
Thought to be Bayern Munich’s future star, Musiala has been benched frequently in favor of the seasoned Thomas Muller under manager Thomas Tuchel in recent months. According to Sport Bild, the young player and his management will now “wait and see” how events unfold in Bavaria before considering their options moving forward. The German publication asserts that Musiala is bothered by the situation. Real Madrid is probably interested in Bayern’s number 42 if it becomes available, in addition to Liverpool. Still, Liverpool might, at the absolute least, evaluate the situation if a player of Musiala’s caliber and age were to unexpectedly enter the market.
On the last day of the summer transfer window, Ryan Gravenberch, a long-term target for Liverpool, was acquired from Bayern Munich. The 21-year-old had pushed for a move due to issues with playing time. If this turns out to be Mohamed Salah’s final season at Anfield, as some have predicted, then the Reds’ attacking options and lineup may need to be adjusted come summertime.
