# Liverpool: Reds interested in Jamal Musiala

**[Liverpool](https://www.footballtransfertavern.com/liverpool-fc-news/) are interested in a deal for Bayern Munich attacking midfielder Jamal Musiala, according to Sky Sports Germany reporter [Florian Plettenberg](https://twitter.com/Plettigoal).**

### The Lowdown: Musiala not for sale

The versatile Germany international still has [four](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/fc-bayern-munchen/berateruebersicht/verein/27) years remaining on his contract in the Bundesliga, but now appears to be attracting interest following a string of impressive performances at the Allianz Arena.

Sporting director Hasan Salihamidzic [stated](https://uk.style.yahoo.com/bayern-crazy-sell-musiala-says-145059299.html) last month that his prized asset was not for sale, though that hasn’t stopped the Reds from looking into a potential move, and it seems as if FSG are keen on bringing him to the [Premier League](https://www.footballtransfertavern.com/premier-league-news/).

### The Latest: Liverpool eyeing Musiala

Taking to [Twitter](https://twitter.com/plettigoal/status/1577311409783840769?s=46&t=RrDCLtG0NiZxEW5SP9rgIw), Plettenberg revealed that Liverpool are monitoring Musiala, but that a deal at this stage is unlikely given Bayern’s current transfer stance.

“News #Musiala: Based on reports from UK: Yes, LFC is interested in Musiala. Like any other top club in the world. But a transfer is no topic at this stage. He doesn’t want to leave Bayern and he is not for sale as mentioned by Salihamidzic at Sky.”

### The Verdict: Bellingham’s the priority

Musiala, [dubbed](https://twitter.com/ftalentscout/status/1451930025058619393?s=46&t=xe_64mbXE7uyJ-OnILt_Jg) a ‘monster’ by football talent scout [Jacek Kulig](https://twitter.com/FTalentScout), has made a rapid start to the Bundesliga season, making [eight](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/jamal-musiala/leistungsdaten/spieler/580195) goal contributions in seven appearances, but it’s obvious that the chances of Liverpool striking a deal are next to impossible.

The Reds are [reportedly](https://www.footballtransfertavern.com/liverpool-fc-news/liverpool-fsg-jude-bellingham-latest-transfer-news-rumours-updates/) plotting a marquee signing in January, with Jude Bellingham having been identified as their number one target, so missing out on the Bayern teenager shouldn’t be too much of a blow.

The Merseysiders haven’t made a big midfield signing since the arrival of Thiago [two](https://www.skysports.com/football/news/11890/12074593/thiago-alcantara-liverpool-sign-bayern-munich-midfielder-in-25m-deal#:~:text=Liverpool%20have%20signed%20Thiago%20Alcantara,wear%20the%20No%206%20jersey.) years ago, so the Borussia Dortmund talent would be a welcome addition should they be able to secure his services in the New Year.
