Pep Guardiola knows who he wants to replace Kevin De Bruyne.
Pep Guardiola believes Bayern’s Jamal Musiala is the rightful heir to Kevin De Bruyne’s throne.
According to German journalist Maximilian Koch, 20-year-old Spanish tactician Musiala is confident of being among the top 10 in the sport next season.
The 20-year-old has not enjoyed as much playing time as expected this season.
Especially considering how important he was to Bayern Munich’s Bundesliga title-winning campaign.

The game creator’s current contract expires in three years, and his long-term future remains uncertain unless an extension is negotiated.
When it comes to the relationship between Manchester City and Bayern Munich’s talented number 42, De Bruyne’s injury problems cannot be overlooked, although it is sad to admit that one of the Premier League’s all-time greats has passed away.

The Belgian suffered another knee injury at the start of the 2023-24 season and is not expected to return until the new year.
Recent reports, including Football Insider, suggest that Manchester City have yet to decide whether to offer the 32-year-old midfielder a new contract beyond 2025 for this reason.
De Bruyne, who won 16 major trophies with the club during his eight years at the Etihad, was eventually replaced by Musiala as the club’s best player, contributing directly to 249 goals in 358 appearances in all competitions.
The German will have big boots to fill.
