Bild, a German publication, claims that PSG is very interested in the 19-year-old attacker. The young German player has already made appearances for Germany's U21 side and has been making waves in the Bundesliga, scoring three goals and dishing out one assist in just seven games.
El Mala has apparently already been the subject of PSG's enquiries, although a deal is far from final. European powerhouses like Borussia Dortmund and Bayern Munich have also taken notice of the budding star, promising fierce rivalry. However, it is unlikely that Cologne will part with its highly valued talent this winter. Journalist Christian Falk revealed that Manchester City recently reached out to Cologne to gauge interest. PSG are closely monitoring the situation alongside Inter Milan, while Bayern Munich have made signing El Mala one of their priorities.
