Manchester City are reportedly eyeing Bayern Munich’s Jamal Musiala as a potential replacement for Kevin De Bruyne. Christian Falk, a journalist for Bild, revealed that City have identified Musiala as a target and the player could be interested in returning to the Premier League, where he started out at Chelsea’s academy. Musiala’s English background could make a move to City appealing to him, and fans are eager to see the club make a move for the young midfielder either this summer or next year.
Bayern Munich are keen to keep hold of Musiala, one of their best players, but the player’s ambition and the opportunity to return to England and compete for the Champions League with City could sway his decision. Musiala’s contract runs until 2026, but if he does not sign a new deal soon, there could be a scramble for his signature at the end of next season. Meanwhile, De Bruyne, who has less than a year left on his current contract, is not expected to leave City this summer but could depart on a free transfer next year.
City fans are excited about the prospect of signing Musiala, with many expressing their desire for the club to make a move for the young talent. Whether Musiala will make the switch to City remains to be seen, but the potential departure of De Bruyne and the allure of playing in the Premier League and challenging for major trophies could make the move appealing for the 18-year-old midfielder.
