Brighton Still Keen on El Mala

Brighton & Hove Albion have told El Mala’s mother that they remain interested in the 19‑year‑old, despite backing away from an earlier €35 million offer. The club will not meet Köln’s €50 million asking price, leaving negotiations stalled. Meanwhile, Chelsea have shown interest and could outbid Brighton, then loan the player back to Köln. Other potential suitors include Brentford and Fulham, though their willingness to meet the price is unclear. cricket-ipl.co.za
