Roberto De Zerbi is reportedly impressed by scouting reports on El Mala, who enjoyed a breakout Bundesliga campaign.

Köln want around 50 million and have not set a deadline on his decision. Brentford were willing to pay that figure, but the player chose not to join.

El Mala finished the 2025/26 season with 13 goals and five assists from 36 appearances.
