Bayern Munich’s president, Herbert Hainer, has expressed the club’s strong desire to retain Jamal Musiala beyond his current contract, which is set to expire in June 2026. Hainer emphasised the club’s commitment to keeping the 21-year-old midfielder for as long as possible, drawing a parallel to Thomas Müller’s long-term association with the club.
Hainer stated, “We want to try everything to keep him as long as possible,” and added, “In my opinion, he could become the second Thomas Müller.” He further suggested that Musiala could potentially remain at Bayern Munich for the next two decades, as reported via @mano_bonke.
Musiala, who joined Bayern Munich from Chelsea’s youth academy in 2019, has quickly established himself as a key player for the team. Known for his versatility and technical skills, he has attracted significant interest from other top European clubs. However, Bayern Munich has consistently shown their intent to secure his future with the club, as evidenced by their firm stance on keeping him amid external interest earlier this year.
In related news, Thomas Müller recently became Bayern Munich’s record player, further highlighting the club’s tradition of retaining their top talents for extended periods. Additionally, Musiala welcomed Michael Olise to Bayern Munich in July, indicating the club’s ongoing efforts to strengthen their squad.
Bayern Munich’s determination to keep Musiala aligns with their broader strategy of maintaining a strong and stable team, ensuring that key players like Musiala and Müller continue to contribute to the club’s success.
