According to a report from The Mirror (as captured by The Express ), Jamal Musiala has rejected Bayern Munich ’s first contract proposal because of a “low” salary offer. While any report emanating out of England on this matter should be taken with a grain of salt, there was some interesting information contained within the story. In particular, the part regarding Musiala’s desired salary — a cool £300k, which equates to over €18 million per season.
That number would be €4 million over Bayern Munich’s alleged new salary ceiling of €14 million (which at this time, is still a rumored number): Manchester City have been handed a huge boost in their bid to sign Bayern Munich star Jamal Musiala. The 21-year-old has been in talks over a new deal with the Bundesliga club, with his current contract expiring in the summer of 2026. But he has now reportedly rejected their latest offer, with Bayern seemingly reluctant to meet his wage demands.
The development follows the attacking midfielder excelling for Germany at Euro 2024, scoring three times and sharing the golden boot with five other players, including club team-mate Harry Kane. According to the Mirror, Musiala is demanding £300k-a-week, which advisors believe represents his value following his displays this summer. And it’s City who are now favourites to pounce next year when Bayern will seemingly need to sell him or risk losing a prize asset for free 12 months later.
Obviously, Bayern Munich will not give up that easily: Bayern have seemingly not given up on talks with new manager Vincent Kompany keen to keep him in Munich. They reportedly value the player at around £120million, a fee likely to price many top clubs out of the running. Aside of Manchester City, Real Madrid , FC Barcelona , Arsenal FC , and Liverpool FC have all been linked to Musiala, whose contract expires in 2026.
