After Man City and Liverpool, Arsenal are also said to have joined the race to sign midfielder Jamal Musiala from Bayern Munich in the summer of 2024.
Bayern Munich just defeated Lazio 3-0 at home, thereby entering the Champions League quarter-finals with a 3-1 aggregate score after two matches. However, it must be admitted that the Bavarians have not played very well since the beginning of the season. They are currently ranked 2nd in the Bundesliga, 10 points behind Xabi Alonso’s team, and Thomas Tuchel’s team were also eliminated early in the German National Cup.
Due to poor form, Bayern Munich have not been able to renew their contract with midfielder Jamal Musiala. According to German press, the Bavarians have offered a new contract worth £150,000/week to Musiala, who has an agreement until the summer of 2026. However, the 21-year-old star has refused.
Musiala has no intention of improving the contract terms as Bayern Munich proposed, some sources say that now is not the time to discuss a new contract, and this has caused big English clubs to get involved.
Arsenal join Man City and Liverpool in race for Jamal Musiala
Man City and Liverpool are both interested in Musiala and sent scouts to watch him during Bayern’s 0-3 defeat to Leverkusen in February. Man City are said to be leading the race for Musiala, with Pep Guardiola a big admirer of the versatile youngster. .
After Man City and Liverpool, Arsenal are also said to have joined the race to sign midfielder Jamal Musiala from Bayern Munich in the summer of 2024. Arsenal are confident of convincing Musiala with a project under Mikel Arteta.
Arsenal have so many quality young players that they can win big trophies in the future. And the attraction of the project that Arteta is building could make Musiala waver.
