Liverpool 'told to pay £100m for Bayern's Jamal Musiala'

Bayern Munich are reportedly willing to sell Jamal Musiala for £100m this summer, amid interest in the German from Liverpool, Manchester City and Real Madrid.

Bayern Munich have reportedly placed a £100m price-tag on Liverpool-linked Jamal Musiala ahead of the summer transfer window.

After spending 10 years in the youth system at Chelsea, the 21-year-old made the high-profile switch to Bundesliga giants Bayern in the summer of 2019.

Musiala has since cemented himself as a key figure at the Allianz Arena, featuring in 155 matches across all competitions for the Bavarians, netting 41 goals.

Despite Thomas Tuchel's side stalling in the race for the Bundesliga crown against Bayer Leverkusen, the winger has provided a total of 13 goal contributions in 20 league appearances.

According to Football Insider, Liverpool are keen on securing the services of youngster Musiala ahead of the 2024-25 campaign - the Reds' first without Jurgen Klopp in nine years.

The report claims that the Merseyside club have made the capture of the Germany international a key priority this summer as they look to evolve following the departure of long-serving coach Klopp.

It is understood that Bayern are not hoping to part ways with Musiala at the end of the season, consequently placing a hefty price-tag on the 21-year-old.

Tuchel's side are supposedly unwilling to sell the former Chelsea man for anything than less £100m, with the attacker now a first-team regular at the Allianz Arena.

With Musiala's contract in Bavaria expiring in the summer of 2026, it is believed that Bayern are attempting to agree new terms with the player.

However, it is said that the 25-time international has rejected proposals for a fresh contract in recent times, with a host of elite European clubs monitoring the situation.

As well as Klopp's Liverpool, Premier League and Champions League holders Manchester City are also believed to be interested in the signing of Muisala.

Fourteen-time European champions Real Madrid are reported to be keen on the German, meaning that there could be a blockbuster battle for his signature in the near future.

Former club Chelsea will be watching any potential transfer saga with interest this summer, as the Blues are set to earn a windfall from a sale of the player.

Mauricio Pochettino's side allegedly inserted a 20% sell-on clause in the deal that saw Muisala to move from Stamford Bridge to the Allianz Arena in June 2019.
