Jamal Musiala has just seen how Liverpool transfer can give him exactly what he wants
Jamal Musiala's future at Bayern Munich was plunged into doubt as contract talks are reportedly at a standstill, with Liverpool said to be an interested party hoping to sweep up the mess.
Shortly after the Reds were linked with a club-record swoop for another Bayern star in the shape of Leroy Sane, whispers spread from Germany of Musiala's discontent with his current circumstances and Jurgen Klopp's 'long-term' interest.
Worded as mentally having a "gnawing" effect, inconsistent opportunities so far this season have seemingly begun to sow seeds of doubt in the 20-year-old's mind. Christian Falk of BILD has this afternoon claimed Liverpool are "interested" in Musiala, and his agents are "currently not talking to the club [Bayern] about extending his contract".
While a hamstring injury hampered the start to his campaign, he has only been named in two starting squads in the Bundesliga in 2023/24. A further three opportunities from the bench have arisen, two matches were missed due to fitness while for the other Musiala was forced to sit and watch from the bench as his team-mates dismantled VfL Bochum 7-0 - a nightmare scenario for any attack-minded individual.
