The Bayern Munich star will be particularly familiar to manager Jurgen Klopp due to his Bundesliga links, but two rival European giants have been touted as more likely transfer destinations.<\/p>\n<p>Musiala spent much of his childhood in England, remaining in Southampton&#8217;s youth set-up for a year before a further eight years at Chelsea. The attacking midfielder even represented the Three Lions at youth level before switching allegiance to Germany in 2021.<\/p>\n<p>He had signed for Bayern two years prior and made swift work of breaking into their senior XI while still a teenager. Musiala is now one of the key men in Thomas Tuchel&#8217;s side, scoring 16 goals in all competitions last season.<\/p>\n<p>According to Sky Germany, Liverpool are monitoring the youngster with a view to bringing him in as Mohamed Salah&#8217;s long-term replacement.<\/p>\n<p> <strong> Don&#8217;t miss&#8230; <\/strong> <strong>Man Utd boss Erik ten Hag speaks out on Alejandro Garnacho scuffing penalty spot<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.images.express.co.uk\/img\/dynamic\/67\/590x\/secondary\/5032051.jpg?r=1698242012045\"><\/p>\n<p>But the same report indicates that Musiala is fully focused on thriving in Bavaria, and if he were to leave, Manchester City and Real Madrid would be the favourites to secure his signature.<\/p>\n<p>Either way, McManaman, who spent over a decade on Liverpool&#8217;s books, believes that luring Musiala away from the German giants is unlikely. &#8220;I think he will always be linked with Liverpool because of Jurgen Klopp&#8217;s connection with the Bundesliga and Jamal\u2019s English connection as well,&#8221; he told <em>Betfred<\/em>.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li> <svg width=\"24\" height=\"24\" viewbox=\"0 0 24 24\" fill=\"none\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\"> <g clip-path=\"url(#clip0_1078_5986)\"> <\/path> <\/path> <\/g> <defs> <clippath> <rect width=\"23.4329\" height=\"23.4329\" fill=\"white\" transform=\"translate(0 0.134262)\"><\/rect> <\/clippath> <\/defs> <\/svg> Advert-free experience without interruptions.<\/li>\n<li> <svg width=\"24\" height=\"24\" viewbox=\"0 0 24 24\" fill=\"none\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\"> <g clip-path=\"url(#clip0_1078_5986)\"> <\/path> <\/path> <\/g> <defs> <clippath> <rect width=\"23.4329\" height=\"23.4329\" fill=\"white\" transform=\"translate(0 0.134262)\"><\/rect> <\/clippath> <\/defs> <\/svg> Rocket-fast speedy loading pages.<\/li>\n<li> <svg width=\"24\" height=\"24\" viewbox=\"0 0 24 24\" fill=\"none\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\"> <g clip-path=\"url(#clip0_1078_5986)\"> <\/path> <\/path> <\/g> <defs> <clippath> <rect width=\"23.4329\" height=\"23.4329\" fill=\"white\" transform=\"translate(0 0.134262)\"><\/rect> <\/clippath> <\/defs> <\/svg> Exclusive &amp; Unlimited access to all our content.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.images.express.co.uk\/img\/logo\/logo-premium-subscription.png\"><\/p>\n<p> <strong> Read more&#8230; <\/strong> <br \/> <strong>Man Utd&#8217;s Mason Greenwood has pressure ramped up as club hit with more bad luck[LATEST] <\/strong> <br \/> <strong>Arsenal could sign &#8216;another Gabriel Martinelli&#8217; and leave Liverpool frustrated[TRANSFERS] <\/strong> <br \/> <strong>Man Utd bidder Sir Jim Ratcliffe could buy all 20 Prem clubs with huge fortune[FEATURE] <\/strong><\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I would be astounded if he was allowed to leave, especially at this moment because he scored the goal to win them the Bundesliga title last season, he\u2019s young and he offers something completely different to what Joshua Kimmich and Leon Goretzka bring to this Bayern Munich side.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;For those reasons, I would be amazed if they allowed him to leave.
