Overview
- Paris Saint‑Germain and Inter Milan are reportedly monitoring Said El Mala, according to BILD reports cited by multiple German outlets.
- Bayern Munich and Borussia Dortmund are also tracking the winger, as domestic interest grows alongside new international suitors.
- Brighton & Hove Albion is said to have submitted an offer of roughly €20 million in the summer window.
- Köln’s leverage is reinforced by the absence of a fixed release clause, with reporting indicating a January transfer is unlikely and a post‑season sale more likely.
- Coach Lukas Kwasniok said an expensive departure will probably be necessary if the form continues, while the club hopes to keep the player should it secure Bundesliga survival.
