El Mala’s Representatives Respond to Chelsea and Bayern Munich Speculations Regarding FC Koln Defender

Said El Mala’s Agent Denies Upcoming Transfer
The representative for Said El Mala has clarified that there are no intentions to leave FC Cologne.
Interest from Major Clubs
The young defender is currently under the radar of prominent teams like Bayern Munich and Chelsea, as rumors suggest that Bayern may pursue El Mala in the January transfer window.
Clarification from Management
However, a spokesperson from the management team addressed the situation in an interview with Kölner Stadt-Anzeiger: “The news suggesting that the player’s representatives are engaging with Borussia Dortmund, Bayern Munich, or any clubs in England is inaccurate.
“At this moment, there is no compelling reason for him to depart from 1. FC Köln, whether this winter or in the next summer transfer window. As it stands, there are no obstacles preventing Said from continuing his journey with Köln next season, especially given the positive trajectory the club is on. It is widely understood that if Said keeps up his growth at this pace, he will eventually take the next step in his career.”
“The immediate future does not see him moving anywhere; he will remain at FC Köln. We are deliberately managing his situation with the club.”
