The 21-year-old's future, however, has been the subject of intense speculation in recent months. Due to significant upheaval in Bayern's recruitment structure last summer, talks with Musiala over a new contract had been stalling for some time, which attracted the attention of Europe's elite.

The German is out of contract in 2026 and Fabrizio Romano has recently announced that Bayern are preparing a monster contract offer for him to fend off interest from Man City and Chelsea, the youngster's former academy club. Liverpool have also been credited with an interest, but their chances of signing Musiala have already been downplayed.

Now, the hopes of Chelsea and City of signing one of Europe's biggest talents have also taken a major hit.

Musiala 'unsellable'

New Bayern board member Max Eberl, in control of sporting operations, has spoken about Musiala's future. Asked by Sky Germany's Florian Plettenberg whether Musiala is considered 'unsellable' by Bayern, the 50-year-old answered in the affirmative.

"Yes," Eberl said. "He is supposed to become the face of FC Bayern in the future. Jamal is a player who brings extremely great joy. He embodies FC Bayern extremely well. It is our intention to make him the new face of FC Bayern.“
