Bayern Munich offer Jamal Musiala contract update amid Man City interest

Bayern Munich president Herbert Hainer has vowed to do everything possible to tie Jamal Musiala down to a new contract.

Musiala, who has entered the final two years of his contract, has been heavily linked with Manchester City and recently left fans sweating when brushed off a question about his future in Munich by insisting he could not predict where he will be playing in five years.

Asked whether he saw Musiala’s comments as a lack of commitment to the club, Hainer told the media: “No, I do not interpret it that way at all, because it is legitimate and exactly as Jamal says. Who would have thought five years ago that Saudi Arabia would suddenly emerge as a player and spend an incredible amount of money and bring in players?

“For me, what he says about FC Bayern is much more important. That he values ​​the club enormously and is focused on the next goals and wants to win titles.”

Hainer continued: “I have a lot of respect for Jamal. When you see how he has developed, it’s incredible. Many people say that he will one day be the best player in the world. We want to do everything we can to keep him at FC Bayern for the long term.

“In my opinion, he could easily become the next Thomas Muller and play here for the next 20 years. I am very optimistic that we will see him at Bayern for a long time to come.”

Director of sport Max Eberl also stressed his confidence, revealing he plans to sit down with Musiala’s representatives in the near future.

“We are always in contact, further discussions will follow,” Eberl said. “He should become a face of FC Bayern in the future. His journey at FC Bayern is far from over. He wants to win titles, and that is exactly what we want too.”
