Transfer expert Fabrizio Romano has confidently stated that Europe’s elite clubs, including Real Madrid and Manchester City, are prepared to compete for the signature of Bayern Munich’s Jamal Musiala, should he fail to agree on a new contract. Widely regarded as one of the most exciting young talents in Europe, the 21-year-old has already made a name for himself both at the club and international level, representing Germany with distinction.
Musiala was a standout performer at Euro 2024, where he was one of six players to claim the Golden Boot, having netted three goals during the tournament. With 36 international caps under his belt, Musiala’s rapid rise to prominence has made him a key figure at Bayern Munich, where he has accumulated 166 appearances, scoring 44 goals and providing 31 assists.
Despite his young age, Musiala has become integral to Vincent Kompany’s Bayern squad. However, with just under two years remaining on his contract, speculation regarding his future is intensifying. Clubs such as Real Madrid, Manchester City, Liverpool, and Barcelona have all been linked with a move for the attacking midfielder.
Bayern Munich’s Crucial Contract Mission
Romano has emphasized that Bayern Munich considers Musiala’s contract extension an urgent priority. Speaking on his YouTube channel, Romano noted that Bayern views keeping Musiala as “absolutely crucial” for their long-term project. The club has already made a substantial offer to the young star, hoping to fend off the mounting interest from rival clubs.
“Bayern Munich want to do everything to keep him. They see him as one of the faces of the future,” Romano explained. “They’ve offered him a significant deal, but if Musiala decides not to renew, top clubs across Europe will be ready to pounce.”
Romano assured fans that clubs like Real Madrid and Manchester City are eagerly watching the situation unfold. “I can guarantee you that all the top clubs, including Real Madrid and Manchester City, love Jamal Musiala. If he doesn’t agree to stay at Bayern, they will be there, for sure,” he said.
Musiala’s Perspective and Bayern’s Response
In recent interviews, Musiala has expressed happiness at Bayern Munich but also hinted at the unpredictable nature of football. “I’m very happy at Bayern, but things can always change quickly in football,” Musiala said, leaving room for speculation about a potential future move.
In response to Musiala’s comments, Bayern Munich president Herbert Hainer was quick to downplay any concerns about the player’s commitment to the club. “I don’t interpret his comments as a lack of commitment. He values Bayern Munich greatly and is focused on winning titles. It’s just that football is a fast-moving world,” Hainer remarked.
Hainer also lauded Musiala’s development and potential. “Many people say that Jamal could become the best player in the world one day. In my opinion, he could easily become the next Thomas Muller and play for Bayern for the next 20 years,” Hainer added. “We will do everything we can to keep him at Bayern for the long term.”
The Road Ahead for Musiala
With Bayern Munich gearing up for their next Bundesliga clash, Musiala is set to play a pivotal role, continuing to build on his already impressive career. However, with top clubs hovering, Bayern must act swiftly to secure his future, or they risk losing one of football’s brightest talents to European rivals.
For now, Musiala remains focused on his current role at Bayern, but as Romano hinted, the situation is fluid, and Europe’s giants are ready to make their move if contract talks stall. Fans and pundits alike will be watching closely to see how this saga unfolds in the coming months.
