Brighton Still Eyeing El Mala

Brighton & Hove Albion remain interested in 19‑year‑old El Mala, but will not meet Köln’s €50 m asking price, even after withdrawing a €35 m bid.

Brighton & Hove Albion have told El Mala’s mother that they still want the 1. FC Köln youngster, even though they will not meet the club’s €50 million asking price. The Seagulls are hoping the price will drop over the summer, while Chelsea is also reportedly interested and could outbid Brighton if they decide to sign the player and loan him back to Köln. Other clubs such as Brentford and Fulham have been mentioned, but their willingness to meet the price is unclear. macnevers-and-co.beer
