The previous round of negotiations between Bayern and representatives of Jamal Musiala was not particularly successful. It can even be said that the executives of the Bavarian giant were quite annoyed by the firm stance of Musiala’s entourage regarding the release clause, but the situation has changed significantly in recent days.Good win! Feels good to be back 💪🏽 pic.twitter.com/AUctJxMkOH— Jamal Musiala (@JamalMusiala) January 15, 2025 Aware of what they are risking, it is clear that they softened in Munich and continued the negotiations by marking the “release clause” item as agreed. At Bayern, they believe they have made a significant step forward in the talks and are very optimistic about reaching an agreement. Both sides are willing to make certain concessions. Bayern’s concession will involve the release clause, which Musiala’s camp insists, wrote Christian Falk from Bild.As a reminder, a few days ago, a figure of 175,000,000 euros was mentioned. According to new reports, that amount could be higher, and the Bavarians have allegedly ‘paid’ this by increasing the salary not to 20,000,000 euros as originally planned, but to 24,000,000 euros, the same amount earned by Harry Kane. Thus, one of the youngest players on the team (but realistically also one of the best) would stand alongside the highest-paid player.Matthaus: Give Musiala a blank check, let him write his own contract – like MessiFrom the same source, there are two more pieces of information related to Bayern: Max Eberl and his associates have allegedly informed Borussia Dortmund that they are interested in Jamie Bynoe-Gittens, and this move could become relevant in a few months if the decision is made not to offer Leroy Sane a new contract. On the other hand, the Munich club wants Thomas Muller to stay for another year, but the veteran is leaning toward retiring in June 2025. The decision will be made in April.BUNDESLIGA – MATCHDAY 18Friday22.30: (2.55) Eintr.Frankfurt (3.60) Dortmund (2.85)Saturday17.30: (1.20) Bayern (8.00) Wolfsburg (14.0)17.30: (3.80) Bochum (3.50) RB Leipzig (1.98)17.30: (2.50) Heidenheim (3.35) St.Pauli (2.85)17.30: (2.95) Holstein Kiel (3.50) Hoffenheim (2.35)17.30: (1.63) Stuttgart (4.00) Freiburg (5.30)20.30: (1.30) Leverkusen (5.80) M’ gladbach (9.00)Sunday17.30: (2.60) Union Berlin (3.15) Mainz (2.85)19.30: (1.90) Werder (3.50) Augsburg (4.10)**odds are subject to change**
