Jamal Musiala gets a new shirt number at Bayern following Leroy Sane's departure
Jamal Musiala has got a new shirt number at Bayern Munich after Leroy Sane departed from the club. He has received an iconic number 10 jersey and from next season, he'll be an important player of the club.
Bayern Munich star Jamal Musiala has officially been handed the iconic No. 10 jersey following the departure of Leroy Sané from the club. The change marks a significant moment in Musiala's career as he continues to rise as one of the most important players in the Bavarian squad.
Previously donning the No. 42, the 21-year-old attacking midfielder will now wear a shirt number historically associated with club legends such as Arjen Robben and Philippe Coutinho. The No. 10 carries high expectations, often reserved for a team's creative engine — a role Musiala is increasingly expected to fulfill.
Musiala has already proven his worth with consistent performances in recent seasons, showcasing his dribbling, vision, and goal-scoring ability. As Bayern look to reclaim their dominance in the Bundesliga and Europe, the German international is set to be a central figure in the team's plans.

Report: Liverpool set £50m price as Newcastle eye winger
Harvey Elliott to Newcastle? Ornstein Reveals Magpies Lead the Chase Newcastle United have emerged as front-runners in the pursuit of Harvey Elliott, with David Ornstein of The Athletic reporting that the Magpies are ahead of European challengers RB Leipzig in the race for the Liverpool winger. After a frustrating 2024/25 season in which Elliott managed just two Premier League starts—both coming after Liverpool had already secured the title—his Anfield future looks increasingly uncertain. Advertisement Despite limited club action this season, Elliott's star rose on the international stage this summer. The 22-year-old was named Player of the Tournament at the Under-21 European Championship, netting five goals and playing a pivotal role in England's triumph. His performances reignited interest across Europe, but it's Newcastle's Champions League qualification that places them firmly in pole position. Newcastle's Advantage Over Leipzig According to Ornstein, Elliott's desire to compete at an elite level is central to his decision-making. 'Elliott wants to operate at an elite level if leaving Liverpool,' Ornstein wrote, with Champions League football cited as a key motivator. While RB Leipzig, backed by Jurgen Klopp in his new role as head of global soccer for Red Bull, have shown interest, their absence from European football next season leaves them trailing. Photo: IMAGO Advertisement Eddie Howe, a known admirer of Elliott has a big advantage to offer over RB Leipzig, their ability to offer top-tier European football, combined with Howe's vision, makes Tyneside an attractive destination for the versatile left-footer. Liverpool's Price Tag and Buy-Back Clause The transfer fee could prove decisive. Ornstein reports: 'Liverpool would want any deal for Elliott to produce a fee in excess of £40m plus a buy-back option, or above £50m without one.' Given Howe's long-term plans, he may push for a clean deal without a buy-back clause, potentially stretching to the £50m mark. Selling Elliott at such a price would represent 'pure profit' for Liverpool due to his homegrown status. These deals significantly boost a club's financial muscle within FFP constraints—something that could fund further reinforcements for Arne Slot's Reds. Our View – EPL Index Analysis From a Newcastle United supporter's perspective, the idea of bringing in Harvey Elliott is both exciting and pragmatic. At just 22, Elliott already boasts European tournament honours, top-tier Premier League experience, and a playing style that aligns well with Eddie Howe's system. Advertisement The need for creativity and control in wide areas has become evident over the past season, especially with injuries to key players and an over-reliance on Isak and Gordon. Elliott's ability to operate between the lines, coupled with his eye for goal—as demonstrated in the Under-21 Euros—could add a new dimension to the squad. The reported £50m fee is significant, but considering Elliott's age, homegrown status, and resale potential, it's an investment with long-term benefits. More importantly, fans would back a deal without a buy-back clause; if Newcastle are building for the future, it makes sense to retain full control over rising talents. Some supporters may be concerned about the Isak angle—rightly so. If his sale becomes a consequence of funding Elliott's arrival, it could spark unrest. Isak has been central to Newcastle's return to Europe and would be tough to replace. However, if it's part of a broader restructuring strategy to comply with financial rules while deepening the squad, it may be a necessary sacrifice.

Leverkusen signs England Under-21 defender Jarell Quansah from Liverpool
Associated Press LEVERKUSEN, Germany (AP) — Bayer Leverkusen has replaced former captain Jonathan Tah with Jarell Quansah from Liverpool in a club-record signing for a defender. The 22-year-old Quansah signed a contract through June 2030 and will wear Tah's former No. 4 shirt, the Bundesliga club said Wednesday. The reported fee of more than 30 million euros ($35.3 million) rising to 40 million ($47 million) with bonuses corresponds roughly with what Liverpool agreed to pay Leverkusen for Netherlands right back Jeremie Frimpong in May. Liverpool reportedly secured a buy-back option for Quansah for more than 60 million euros ($70.6 million) after he has spent two seasons at Leverkusen. Leverkusen also sold star player Florian Wirtz to Liverpool last month for a Bundesliga-record fee. Tah switched to league rival Bayern Munich once the season concluded after declining to extend his contract. He had spent a decade at Leverkusen and was a key part of the team which won the Bundesliga and German Cup unbeaten in 2023-24. Quansah won the Under-21 European Championship with England last week. But he was unable to establish himself as a regular starter at Liverpool ahead of Virgil van Dijk and Ibrahima Konate. 'One of the most promising English central defenders. He's fast, agile, a good footballer,' Leverkusen sporting director Simon Rolfes said of Quansah. 'He has already made an impressive impact in a Liverpool defense dominated by world-class players. With Jarell, our defense gains significant dynamism, pace and toughness in tackling, and he's another very important building block." Leverkusen last week also signed Abdoulaye Faye for a reported fee of 3 million euros ($3.5 million) from Swedish team BK Hacken, with the 20-year-old Senegalese defender expected to go on loan for the upcoming season. ___ AP soccer: recommended
