Florentino Cancels an Exciting Transfer, Declares Himself for Barça and is Ruled out
Musiala has nodded the Barça team and despite being one of the great desires, the board has changed its opinion
Jamal Musiala, Bayern München's star, has sparked interest in the market. His contract with the German club expires in June 2026, but negotiations for its renewal are underway. However, disagreements between both parties create uncertainty.
According to Florian Plettenberg of Sky Sports, Bayern seeks to renew the player before June 2025. The main issues are the salary, the contract duration, and the inclusion of a release clause, something Musiala wants to incorporate.
This clause suggests that the player isn't closing doors to a future outside of München. Teams like FC Barcelona, Manchester City, and Real Madrid have been linked with his name.
Winks at Barça
In recent weeks, Musiala has shown a special closeness to Barcelona. In a recent interview with BILD, he expressed his admiration for the Catalan club.
"As a child, I always wore Messi jerseys. I also had one of Neymar, but Messi was my hero. FC Barcelona was my favorite team. I was fascinated by the midfield with Xavi, Iniesta, and Busquets," confessed the German player.
These comments have caused a strong impact on Real Madrid's fans. The relationship with Barça seems an insurmountable obstacle for any attempt by Florentino Pérez to sign the midfielder.
Madrid distances itself from the transfer
Despite Musiala's talent, Real Madrid has decided to step back. The club doesn't intend to get involved in an operation that might raise doubts among the fans due to his sympathy toward the eternal rival.
Moreover, Florentino Pérez is clear that the club must prioritize players committed to the team's philosophy. Barça's interest in Musiala reinforces the decision not to enter the bidding.
Bayern continues working to finalize his renewal as soon as possible. However, the interest of major European clubs and Musiala's winks at Barcelona complicate the situation.
If no agreement is reached, the summer of 2025 could mark a turning point in his career. Meanwhile, Real Madrid withdraws and Florentino closes the door on a transfer that promised to be exciting.
