The future of Jamal Musiala at FC Bayern Munich raises questions that not only concern the fans, but also the club’s management. As one of the most promising young talents in European football, Musiala is the focus of major clubs and will soon have to make a groundbreaking decision.
For Bayern bosses Max Eberl and Christoph Freund, Musiala is the key player for the club’s future. Top clubs such as Manchester City, Liverpool and Chelsea are known to be interested in the German international. Concrete talks about his future are scheduled for after the end of the season.
According to Sport BILD, two aspects play a decisive role in Musiala’s decision. The sporting aspect takes centre stage. He wants to see a perspective that convinces him that he can develop into a global star at Bayern, similar to his friend Jude Bellingham at Real Madrid. The new coach’s vision for Musiala’s role in the team will play a central role in this.
Musiala is not one of the top earners
Salary is the second important point, according to the report. Since his last contract extension in 2021, Musiala has earned a base salary of five million euros per year, which increases by 500,000 euros for every season in which he plays at least 35 games – currently between 7 and 8 million euros per year. In comparison, Bayern’s top earner Harry Kane earns up to €25 million a year.
Despite rumours from England about Musiala refusing to extend his contract at Bayern with a possible move to his former youth club Chelsea, his departure this summer remains unlikely.
The young international, who has become a crowd favourite in Munich and secured important victories for the club, still has a contract with Bayern until 2026. Musiala himself has repeatedly emphasised his satisfaction in Munich and made it clear that there is no rush in the contract talks. However, Bayern is his first point of contact.
