Man City target drops transfer bombshell as he refuses to rule out shock exit

One Manchester City transfer target has spoken about his future and has refused to rule out an exit.

After winning four Premier League titles in a row, City had a quiet summer transfer window as they only brought in winger Savinho from Troyes and midfielder Ilkay Gundogan returned after leaving La Liga giants Barcelona.

Meanwhile, they parted ways with Julian Alvarez, Joao Cancelo, Taylor Harwood-Bellis, Sergio Gomez and Tommy Doyle.

Throughout the summer, the reigning Premier League champions were linked with a host of names, including the likes of Eberechi Eze, Kyogo Furuhashi, Bruno Guimaraes, Luis Diaz and Jamal Musiala.

Bayern Munich star Musiala has been linked with a move to the Etihad Stadium as a potential long-term replacement for Kevin De Bruyne.

Recently, the German international spoke about his future in Bavaria.

As reported by GOAL, Musiala told Welt Am Sonntag: “I’m very happy at FC Bayern and fully focused on our goals. Playing abroad like (Jude) Bellingham?

“I’m not thinking about where I will be in five years. Things can always change quickly in the world of football.”

Musiala also revealed he and Manchester United's Joshua Zirkzee joked about rumours linking him with a move to Old Trafford.

He added: “You always joke around with friends and dream of playing together in a team one day.

“The jokes go both ways. I also told Josh that he should come back to Bayern. But you shouldn’t take that too seriously.”

Musiala has enjoyed a fine start to the 24/25 Bundesliga season after scoring once in two matches so far under new boss Vincent Kompany.

The Bavarians are currently second in the league table on goal difference, behind Heidenheim and ahead of RB Leipzig.

After the latest international, Bayern will return to domestic action with a match against Holstein Kiel.
