"Leon Goretzka has suitors in January like Fenerbahçe and Juventus, but neither the player nor Bayern are planning a move mid-season, even though it would be the club's last chance to get a transfer fee before Goretzka's contract expires in the summer. A contract extension remains a possibility but only on significantly reduced terms. Like it or not Bayern Munich fans, Goretzka is a key member of the squad and an important cog in Vincent Kompany's machine."
"Manchester City boss Pep Guardiola has been impressed by FC Cologne winger Said El Mala and is having him closely watched, as reported by Sky Sports Deutschland, which adds that scouts have been at the 19-year-old's recent matches. Bayern Munich and Borussia Dortmund are also interested but a deal could be difficult for the Bundesliga clubs to complete as Cologne have extended El Mala's contract until 2030 and are demanding a fee of €40 million."
Leon Goretzka will be a free agent after the season, but neither he nor Bayern plan a January transfer despite interest from clubs such as Fenerbahçe and Juventus. Bayern would lose the chance to secure a transfer fee once the contract expires in summer, and any extension would likely be on significantly reduced terms. Goretzka remains a key player under Vincent Kompany, with a post-season departure possible and a winter move presented as a likelihood. Pep Guardiola and other top clubs are monitoring 19-year-old Said El Mala, while Cologne have extended his contract to 2030 and ask €40 million; winter talks are planned and El Mala is in no rush to leave. Florian Wirtz's father says his son is settling into England as expected.
