Liverpool FC might have seen enough of Bayern Munich youngster Jamal Musiala to know it is willing to break the bank to get him:
Liverpool are weighing up a move for a Bayern Munich superstar who’ll cost a club-record fee to sign, though bitter rivals Manchester City could thunder in with a swoop of their own, according to reports.
Speculation Luis Diaz’s future lays away from Anfield refuses to go away. Barcelona remain keen on signing the Colombia international who the latest reports claim can leave Liverpool for a discounted fee. Even if Diaz were to remain at Anfield, trusted journalist David Ornstein has reported Arne Slot’s side are weighing up an addition in the forward line and on the wings in particular. One of the stars to shine brightest in the early going at Euro 2024 is Bayern Munich and Germany ace, Jamal Musiala.
According to a report from the Mirror, Liverpool are considering what would unquestionably be a record-setting swoop for the 21-year-old superstar. They state Liverpool’s interest in Musiala has piqued on the back of his two goalscoring displays for host nation Germany at Euro 2024. The Reds were already big fans of Musiala, though are now said to be considering acting on their interest and making an official move.
It does not seem realistic to think that Musiala would push for a transfer this summer, but all of the movement with transfers is curious to say the least. Musiala’s contract will be the most crucial project for the new regime in the front office. The money will be there from any club, so it will just come down to how much Musiala wants to be in Bavaria.
