According to a report from Sport Bild journalist Christian Falk, Manchester City, Inter Milan, and Paris Saint-Germain will be Bayern Munich’s primary competitors in the race to get FC Köln star Said El
Mala:
Reported Bayern target Said El Mala is catching the eye of PSG and Inter Milan. Bayern have him on the list. They’re not so afraid of these two clubs.
However, we heard in Munich, and this could be interesting for the Premier League, that Manchester City also have him on their list. When City are at the table, Bayern Munich are always aware that things could get a little risky, as the two clubs are playing a similar style and Pep Guardiola is an attractive coach for a young player.
So, Bayern told FC Köln, “If there are any calls from Man City, please give us a signal to also make an offer.” It’s not a matching right, to be absolutely clear, as that’s always in written form.
It is hard to discern if any of these teams need El Mala, but it is becoming clear that they all want him.
Bayern Munich is steamrolling into the week and is scorching hot.
Hotter than hot.
Blazing hot.
However you want to put it, the Bavarians are riding high and playing better than they have at point since 2020. This has truly been a fun ride to watch, but it is far from over. In the midst of all of that, we have a ton of news going on and a lot of it (hell, all of it) is positive at this stage.
Let’s get into all of it here. This is what we have on tap for this edition of the Bavarian Podcast Works — Weekend Warm-up Show:
