It has been reported that Manchester City will try to sign Jamal Musiala as a long-term replacement for Kevin De Bruyne.
This comes from The Secret Scout, as the Belgian playmaker’s time at City could soon come to an end, with him being 32 years of age and currently out with a serious hamstring injury.
However, it seems like the vision at Manchester City is to bring in Jamal Musiala to succeed Kevin De Bruyne.
Journalist: Manchester City view Jamal Musiala as the ideal Kevin De Bruyne replacement
Branded as a ‘generational talent’ by Foot The Ball, the 20-year-old is widely regarded as one of the best young players in the world.
In fact, despite being a teenager, it’s safe to say that the German international is already Bayern Munich’s standout player.
Now, it has been revealed that Manchester City “will try to target’ Jamala Musiala to come in and replace Kevin De Bruyne in the long run.
The prospect of the youngster potentially working with Pep Guardiola will frighten opposition teams, managers and defenders across the planet.
Jamal Musiala would be a splendid successor to the Belgian
While Kevin De Bruyne, branded as ‘magnificent’ by Alan Shearer is arguably still the best midfielder in the world, to have earmarked the Bayern Munich poster-boy as his replacement already is classically clinical long-term planning from Manchester City.
In all fairness, the Cobham youth product would fit the bill as well.
Much like De Bruyne, the four-time Bundesliga winner is a specialist at carrying the ball, possesses an incredible final ball, produces end product for fun and is at his best in the final third.
With Phil Foden showcasing that he can thrive in deeper central areas, perhaps Jamal Musiala could prove to be his ideal partner-in-crime in a more advanced position if the move comes to fruition.
All one can say is the prospect of Musiala donning sky blue would be a scary one.
