MANCHESTER CITY are eager to sign Bayern Munich star Jamal Musiala this summer, according to reports.

The reigning Premier League champions will look to strengthen once again this summer, after not being fully satisfied with last year’s business.

City lost key me𝚗 Ilkay Gundogan and Riyad Mahrez last summer, while they also decided to let Cole Palmer leave to join Chelsea.

New recruit Matheus Nunes has not made an impact since joining from Wolves, while Jeremy Doku still has a way to go.

According to The Guardian, City will make a “big push” to sign Musiala this summer.

They add that City’s interest is “advanced” and that the Bayern ace, 21, is becoming their top target.

Musiala left Chelsea’s academy aged 16 to join Bayern Munich in 2019.

He has since gone on to become a key man in Bavaria, helping them to four Bundesliga titles and a Club World Cup.

With Bayern having lost their crown to Bayer Leverkusen this term, Musiala may feel that now is the time to leave.

The Germany international, who represented England at youth level, has two years remaining on his contract.

Should he indicate that he would like to leave Bayern he is set to receive plenty of interest, with Chelsea also remaining keen on their former Cobham starlet.

Pep Guardiola is eager to add more attacking players to City, so they have two backup choices available in case Musiala turns out to be unachievable.

Despite their reservations over Eberechi Eze’s ιnjury history, they are still interested in the Crystal Palace player.

Lucas Paqueta, the star midfield player for West Ham, is also still being considered, although any move would depend on the conclusion of an FA investigation into the midfielder’s suspected betting violations, which he disputes.
