Liverpool and Manchester United have suffered a transfer blow after Bayern Munich reportedly made progress in tying Jamal Musiala down to a new deal.
Sportsmail exclusively revealed last month that the Bundesliga and European champions had opened talks with the 17-year-old about a new deal worth in excess of £100,000-per-week.
The England U21 international has just 18 months left on his youth agreement but Sportsmail revealed Munich are understood to have earmarked Musiala for a deal with a weekly, six-figure basic salary with further performance-related bonuses on top.
Now, according to Goal, the negotiations between the two parties have advanced in the German side's bid to secure his long-term future amid mounting Premier League interest in the record-breaking teenager.
