Bayern Munich star Jamal Musiala has become one of the hottest properties in European football over the past 12 months, with Real Madrid and Manchester City both tracking him.
The Germany international recently said his only focus is on Bayern Munich this season as they aim to reclaim their Bundesliga title in 2025.
His current contract with Bayern expires in 2026, with the club’s sporting director Max Eberl admitting a renewal could be difficult as the club aim to lure the 21-year-old back.
The key to any potential deal appears to lie in Musiala’s confidence in his ability to win the UEFA Champions League in Munich.
The last three Champions League crowns have been won by either Real Madrid or City, and that factor could prove crucial as transfers are expected in 2025.
If Bayern Munich were to give up their position and consider a sale to avoid a free transfer, reports Teamtalk.com indicate they will offer an asking price of £100 million ($133 million).
Both clubs have the financial resources to secure that amount, which would match the club record fee City paid Aston Villa for Jack Grealish in 2021.
However, any City transfer will depend on the outcome of the 115 allegations of financial misconduct currently being investigated by the Premier League, with Real Madrid already boasting a superstar attack.
