In the Ballon d’Or voting revealed yesterday night, Jamal Musiala of Arsenal defeated captain Martin Odegaard. The midfield player has been linked to a transfer to Liverpool.
According to Fabrizio Romano, Mohamed Salah finished 11th, and Lionel Messi, who won a record-breaking eighth Ballon d’Or, finished 26th overall.
In recent weeks, Musiala’s transfer to Liverpool has been heavily suggested, suggesting that the £89 million star may consider leaving Bayern Munich in 2024.
Achieving such a high rating in the Ballon d’Or vote will also inspire Liverpool, who may decide to sign Musiala as their next big star within the next 12 months.
In fact, given the season the Arsenal star had the previous season, many would contest how Musiala finished ahead of Odegaard, but there’s no doubting the German’s talent for a team like Liverpool.
Musiala must be signed by Liverpool next year
Musiala is undeniably one of the top football prospects in the world right now, and Jurgen Klopp must use every means at his disposal to try to bring the young player to Anfield.
It’s unsettling to consider the kind of player Musiala may develop into if he were to sign with a team like Liverpool in the upcoming season, considering he hasn’t even reached the pinnacle of his skill.
And even in the event that Bayern are hesitant to sell and the asking price is higher than anything Liverpool has ever paid for a player in their history, the Reds must make sure they accomplish just that.
