‘Incredible’ player turns back on chance to sign for Arsenal and is ready to sign new contract

TBR Football exclusively understands Bayern Munich are increasingly confident of signing Jamal Musiala to a new contract, who’s ready to ignore interest from Arsenal.

At 21-years-old, Musiala has continued to go from strength to strength in the Bundesliga with Bayern, netting 15 goals and providing seven assists in 28 ap🌺pearances this season.

Arsenal joined the race to sign Musiala back at the end of last summer when news emerged that th🥂e Germany international was stalling on a new contract.

Musiala left Chelsea in 2019 without making 🍌a senior appearance for the club, and the four-time Bundesliga winner has seemingly been linked back to the Premier League ever since.

Jamal Musiala could follow Alphonso Davies in signing new Bayern Munich contract

That being said, Graeme Bailey – chief correspondent at TBR Football, understands that Bayern believe that🧸 Alphonꦗso Davies’ new contract will play a significant role in persuading Musiala to sign a deal.

Incidentally, Arsenal were interested in Davies 🎐too, but Bayern fought long and hard to keep the left-back, who has decided to stay in Munich rather than joining Real Madrid.

The Canadian has signed a new five-and-a-hal൩f year contract with Bayern, and now the club wants Musiala to do similar.

Musiala put talks over a new deal on hold before December, but recent weeks have seen Bay💙ern step up their efforts to tie down the midfielder to fresh terms.

Talks are now progressing, with Musiala turning his back on interest from Arsenal, Chelsea, Manchester City and Liverpool, as well as Real Madrid followiไng their Davies pursuit.

Jamal Musiala is aware of the options to leave Bayern Munich

TBR understands that Musiala’s entourage are aware of the options available to the midfielder, and there has been regular contract wꦍith his suitors.

However, sources with knowledge of the situation have confirmed that the sides purs🐽uing Musiala ultimately believe that he is ready to commit to a new deal at Bayern.

Former Man City man Kyle Walker hailed Musiala as ‘incredible’ last year, a 21-year-old who has already achieved sꦇo much in his career 🎶to date.

Arsenal fans might be interested to know that Davies thinks Musiala is better than Bukayo Saka – a very bold claim.

Either way, it doesn’t appear as if Premier League fans w🔯ill get the chance to compare th👍e two in the near future, with Musiala set to continue his adventure with Bayern.
