Manchester City join Bayern Munich in race for Said El Mala
"It is TRUE: Reported Bayern target Said El Mala is catching the eye of PSG and Inter Milan. Bayern have him on the list. They're not so afraid of these two clubs. However, we heard in Munich, and this could be interesting for the Premier League, that Manchester City also have him on their list. When City are at the table, Bayern Munich are always aware that things could get a little risky, as the two clubs are playing a similar style and Pep Guardiola is an attractive coach for a young player."
"So, Bayern told FC Köln, 'If there are any calls from Man City, please give us a signal to also make an offer.' It's not a matching right, to be absolutely clear, as that's always in written form. According to Florian Plettenberg, several clubs are looking to sign El Mala permanently and send him back to Cologne on loan for the rest of the season. The price for the attacker, who has scored three Bundesliga goals in two starts, is rising, and €30-40m are currently not enough. El Mala is happy at the club, and he is not pushing"
Said El Mala, a 19-year-old attacker, is attracting interest from Manchester City, Bayern Munich, PSG and Inter Milan. Manchester City have made enquiries to Köln while Bayern have him on their list and asked to be informed of any City approach. Several clubs are exploring permanent deals with loan-back arrangements to Cologne for the remainder of the season. The forward has scored three Bundesliga goals in two starts, his market price is rising and €30–40m is currently considered insufficient. El Mala is content at his current club and is not forcing a move. Bayern have strengthened their forward line with Luis Diaz and Nicolas Jackson and expect Jamal Musiala to return to training.
