Liverpool open transfer talks with €100m Bayern Munich SUPERSTAR

Liverpool have a largely complete squad that is capable of winning anything.

Arne Slot currently has the club in pole position for each of the competitions they've entered so far this season, be it the Premier League, the Champions League or the EFL Cup.

As such, fans are excited about what this campaign may have in store for the team, whose form is yet to drop off, with the side unbeaten in their last 20 matches across all competitions.

However, no great team ever stands still.

In order to excel, you've got to be on top of things 100% of the time, and so although Liverpool's squad has very few holes in it, the club's executives are keeping a lookout for possible transfers that could make a difference in those season-defining games.

One such difference-maker is Bayern Munich's midfield starlet Jamal Musiala.

Liverpool are aware of Musiala's situation

Playing in the No10 position under Vincent Kompany's management, Musiala is a special talent that teams across the world will have admired for a number of years now.

His dribbling ability is unmatched and when he's at his best, very few players come near him on the pitch.

However, his current contract with Bayern Munich is set to expire in 2026, meaning that if a new deal is not negotiated in the next 18 months, then he might leave the club on a free transfer.

According to the latest report from Rousing The Kop, "Liverpool have been alerted to the possibility that Musiala could soon become available on the market.

"It is understood that the Reds are one of a number of top sides who are pushing to get to the front of the queue, should the 21-year-old choose not to extend his stay at Bayern.

"The Reds are very much in touch with the Germany international’s representatives in order to stay in the loop.

"However, these discussions are simply preliminary for the moment, with Liverpool understood to have told Musiala that they will be ready and waiting if and when he decides that his future lies away from Bayern."

Liverpool seek 'opportunistic' transfers

Of course, this would be an incredibly ambitious move, and for the moment Bayern hold all the cards, as Musiala is not at risk of leaving until next season.

But it is not a negative thing to be aware of the situation, and although in many people's eyes, the young attacking talent moving to Liverpool might be a pipe dream, the Reds have been known to be opportunistic and as one of Europe's elite, the allure of the club speaks for itself.

For the time being, Liverpool can simply sit back and admire the star's talent and continue on their merry way.

With personnel such as Dominik Szoboszlai, Harvey Elliott and Alexis Mac Allister already in the team's ranks, there is no lack of creativity in the midfield of Arne Slot's side.

Across the 24 games the Reds have played, they have scored 49 goals.

However, while many may feel as though Liverpool are often behind the eight-ball when it comes to transfers, the reports are suggesting a situation that couldn't be more different.
