Both clubs are understood to have scouted Maza this season as they “assess his development and potential availability.”

Chelsea, Manchester City and Aston Villa are also mentioned as clubs monitoring the youngster.

Signed from Hertha for €12 million last summer, Maza has since scored six goals and provided nine assists in 49 appearances for Leverkusen.

The attacking midfielder has made an encouraging start to the season, registering one goal and two assists in five appearances.
