Bayern Munich knows that if they want to dominate European football for the next decade and beyond, Jamal Musiala must stay at the Allianz Arena. Their top priority is, of course, pairing him with his national teammate and Bayer Leverkusen star Florian Wirtz, but Bayern must take it step by step, first addressing matters at home before looking elsewhere. Musiala’s contract with the Munich giants expires in the summer of 2026. Potentially, by the end of this season, he would enter the final year of his contract, something Bayern is keen to avoid to prevent a repeat of situations like those with David Alaba or Alphonso Davies, whose contract expires in just over six months at the Allianz Arena.Bayern’s primary issue – Musiala’s futureSo, although Musiala, during his initial talks with Bayern’s management in late September (accompanied by his representatives), didn’t mention money once (his team insisted that financial demands be the last item in negotiations, as they believe an agreement on salary will be easily reached once it’s the only topic left), German Sky Sport reports that the club is ready to match his pay with the team’s highest earner, Harry Kane! England’s captain earns 25 million euros gross per season, which translates to a little over half that amount net (around 14 million). Musiala currently has a gross salary of between eight and nine million, which could potentially triple if he signs a deal until 2029 or 2030. Currently, behind Kane are Manuel Neuer, Thomas Müller, Joshua Kimmich, and Leroy Sané, all earning between 19 and 20 million euros.Four top clubs are in for WirtzIn September, Bayern president Herbert Hainer mentioned that the club is prepared to do everything possible to secure a new long-term deal with their star and German international, whom Bayern sees as the new Thomas Müller — a figure who would spend his entire career at the Allianz Arena. According to Sky Sport, Musiala, who this season has scored and assisted three goals each in eight matches across all competitions, is currently not negotiating with Real Madrid or Manchester City, two giants seen as the biggest threats to potentially luring him away.##NAJAVA_MECA_8398493##
