Bayern Munich are reportedly edging closer to signing Chelsea academy star Jamal Musiala, according to German outlet Bild, cited by Sports Witness.
The report claims that Bayern, who have been interested in senior Chelsea winger Callum Hudson-Odoi in recent months, have secured the services of the 18-year-old, with the player set to sign a professional five-year deal with the club.
Musiala is regarded as a future star by the Blues, who are desperate to keep hold of the player, however, it appears as if Musiala will make the move to Germany in the coming days.
The forward hasn’t turned out in a first-team encounter for Chelsea and will seek to break into the senior Munich squad in the coming years.
Plenty of teenagers have left England for Germany in recent years, with the likes of Jadon Sancho and Reiss Nelson excelling in the Bundesliga.
The news comes as a blow to Chelsea, who are currently under a two-window transfer ban and may have considered including the youngster in their first-team plans next season.
