Manchester United and Tottenham Hotspur have joined the battle to sign Koln winger Said El Mala next year.
According to Sport Bild, the Premier League clubs have now contacted Koln through intermediaries to register their interest in El Mala ahead of next summer’s transfer window.
The report added that both the Red Devils and Spurs have indicated that they would be willing to pay a transfer fee between £30.7m and £35m for El Mala.
El Mala is currently considered as one of the brightest young prospects in German football.
The 19-year-old made an excellent start to his first Bundesliga campaign with six goals and two assists in 14 league matches.
He was rewarded last month for his form as Germany coach Julian Nagelsmann called him up to the national team for the first time.
El Mala was also a key figure for Germany at the UEFA European Under-19 Championship and was named in the team of the tournament.
