Xhamal Musiala divides Bayern, the condition of the 21-year-old contradicts the

Xhamal Musiala is open to a contract extension with Bayern Munich. However, the 21-year-old sets clear conditions for this. As "Sport BILD" reports, Musiala is apparently seeking an exit clause.

This should be around 175 million euros. Xhamal is seen as an absolute bearer of hope and future in Munich. Extending it is the highest priority for the German record holders. However, the player's request for a release clause contradicts the philosophy of the Bavarian club. The team traditionally rejects such regulations because they remove control over potential transfers. In particular, former Bayern boss and current member of the supervisory board Karl-Hainc Rumenige is opposed to such a clause.

A transfer for 175 million euros would make the 21-year-old the third most expensive player in football history, behind Neymar (222 million euros) and Kylian Mbappe (180 million euros). However, this fee does not appear to be an option for Bayern, especially as Musiala's market value is currently estimated by Transfermarkt at €140 million and could rise further with a long-term extension. As "Sky" confirms, the players' side specifically raised the issue of exit clauses in the discussions.

Musiala is believed to be interested in securing an exit option if the club's sporting development does not go as desired in the coming years. The idea of ​​Musiala's side according to "Sport BILD" is: "The longer the contract lasts, the more sense an exit clause has." After all, Musiala's side is said to have "accommodated" Bayern when it comes to salary demands. Therefore, it is not a prerequisite for a contract extension for Xhamal to make him the highest earner ahead of Harry Kane, whose annual salary is estimated at around 24 million euros. Negotiations between the two camps have dragged on for months, and no early agreement appears to be on the horizon.
