Bayern Munich forward Jamal Musiala took the unusual step from top-level Premier League academy to the Bundesliga. The move has been an overwhelming success for Musiala, who opted to represent Germany at international level.
Success in Bundesliga odds has been matched by individual achievements. The Stuttgart-born attacking midfielder has blossomed into a vital player for FC Hollywood and the German national team.

Regulars on the live betting pages will have witnessed Musiala’s impact in the Bundesliga and Champions League. Going from strength to strength, what more can we learn about the former England under-21 international?
How Much Is Jamal Musiala Worth?
Jamal Musiala net worth estimations range from £2 million up to £15 million. While Musiala is a four-time Bundesliga winner, he has not been a high earner (by elite football’s standards) for very long.
After all, these are the early stages of his career at the highest level, so he has not been able to amass as much money as some of his peers at the Allianz Arena.

A rising star for club and country, Musiala is bound to receive plenty of income via endorsements in the coming years.
He has had a deal with Nike for several years, which saw him switch from the Mercurial to the Tiempo recently.
Salary & Current Contract
Bayern Munich are planning to extend Jamal Musiala’s contract, according to sporting director Max Eberl.
"They are the faces of the future, Our history reflects our commitment to nurturing exceptional young talent like Jamal, Mathys, and Aleks Pavlovic.
"Mathys has already committed until 2029. Extending Jamal's contract is imperative; there's no alternative. Our support for young talents doesn't diminish the importance of experienced players; they play a vital role in nurturing the development of these prodigious talents."
According to reports, Musiala’s current deal expires at the end of the 2025-26 season.
Salary Sport claim Musiala is on around £90,000 per week, which is a reasonable number considering there are 112 Premier League players earning more than that, per Spotrac.
Career Statistics So Far
WhoScored and FB-Reference are two of the best sites to find Jamal Musiala stats.
In the 2023-24 season, Musiala made 38 appearances for Bayern Munich across all competitions, scoring 12 goals and assisting eight.
He is nearing his 30th cap for Germany, and has scored two goals for Die Mannschaft.
How Old Is Jamal Musiala?
Born on 26th February 2003, Jamal Musiala is 21 years old at the time of writing. Musiala is one of the best young players in world football.
He was just 17 years old when he made his senior debut, and holds the record for being the youngest player to ever appear for Bayern Munich in the Bundesliga.
Aged 17 years and 205 days, he became Bayern’s youngest ever goal scorer, taking the record from Roque Santa Cruz.
Links With Arsenal
With Arsenal hoping to finally pip Manchester City to the Premier League title in 2025, Jamal Musiala has been heavily linked with a move to the Emirates Stadium.
Musiala reportedly turned down a contract offer from Bayern Munich during the 2023-24 season, provoking further speculation that he could be on the market.
Some Arsenal fans might take hope from Mikel Arteta’s comments about Kylian Mbappe. They could easily be applied to Musiala should the Germany international become available.
Arteta said, "The club that we are, I don't think that's ever been an issue. Everyone wants to play for Arsenal.
"At least with the players we've discussed, they've always had a smile on their face when you open the door to that discussion. That's because of our history and everything we've done in the past."
Arsenal clearly believe they can compete for the world’s best players, and Musiala falls into that bracket.
The Gunners also employ Mika Biereth, who is Musiala’s best friend. Biereth spent the 2023-24 season on loan at Motherwell and Sturm Graz.
In an interview, the Dane said, "Jamal Musiala is my best friend, We grew up together and went to school together. I played with him at Chelsea. He is truly like a brother to me, and we are in contact every single day.
"In fact, I spoke with him 10 minutes before this interview. I congratulated him on playing as number 10 for Germany in the Euros.
"Our relationship isn't so much about football. Of course, we talk about football and support each other, but most of the time we talk about all sorts of other things."
Time At Chelsea
After moving from Fulda, Germany to England at the age of seven, Musiala joined Chelsea’s youth academy as an under-8.
According to reports, Musiala was offered a contract at Chelsea as a 16-year-old, but he felt there were better developmental opportunities elsewhere, which led him to Bavaria.
Brexit apparently played a part in Musiala’s decision to return to Germany, too. Bayern scouted Musiala around the time of their Callum Hudson-Odoi pursuit, and the former ultimately made the move in 2019.
Speaking about his relationship with Chelsea, Musiala said, "They are family for me, and I am sure that I remain a member of the family, even though I'm no longer there.
"I wouldn't be where I am right now without the trust and support of Chelsea and the FA, throughout the hard times and fun times. It wasn't always easy, but they made me the player I am now."
