There has been some shock reports in the media which have claimed that Arsenal are interested in signing Bayern Munich superstar Jamal Musiala, but can they actually sign the German superstar?
Musiala is one of the most dynamic, exciting and talented players in world football and a man that Bayern believe can get them back into the habit of winning that Champions League title.
However – there has been alot of speculation about his long-term future at Bayern Munich and it has been mentioned on many occasions that a move to the Premier League could happen, with a number of top clubs ready to splash the cash to try and get a transfer deal done.
According to insider Bayern Space. ARSENAL hierarchy have already held background talks over a possible deal for Musiala, with suggestions that a fee of £150 million would be good enough to secure the German star.
Contract and release clause dynamics
Musiala’s current contract reportedly includes a release clause of around €150 million for the summer 2026 window, which may sound like a clear price tag for interested clubs — but it remains an enormous figure for a midfielder, even in today’s inflated market.
Notably, that clause is set to decrease in future windows, with €135 million expected by 2027 — which many insiders now view as the more realistic departure window for Musiala should he ultimately leave Bayern.
Bayern’s stance and sporting project
Bayern Munich have publicly shown a desire to keep Musiala long-term, making him a central figure in their project as Bundesliga champions and Champions League contenders. Club leadership has praised his importance and repeatedly stressed they want to build around him.
That commitment makes any summer exit tough — particularly for a club outside the absolute very top of European football — even if Arsenal could theoretically match the release clause.
Would Musiala be interested in Arsenal?
Musiala has been open about being ‘open to everything’ when asked about his future, acknowledging that a move abroad — including to the Premier League — is not inconceivable. He’s expressed a willingness to take opportunities that come his way, although he’s also spoken about enjoyment and stability during his time at Bayern.
However, his contract extension and public comments about feeling at home in Munich complicate narratives that he’s desperate to leave. His deep connection with Bayern, where he rose to prominence after leaving England as a youngster, means that any exit would need the right project, challenge and personal motivation.
Interestingly, other clubs — including Barcelona, Manchester City, Liverpool and even Chelsea — have been linked with interest over the years, suggesting Musiala’s future could be shaped more by opportunity and context than any single club’s pursuit
