Borussia Dortmund prepares new offer for Said El Mala from FC Köln

Borussia Dortmund plans to submit a new bid for FC Köln's Said El Mala this week, potentially offering around €40 million plus bonuses. This bid is part of an ongoing effort to secure the 19-year-old attacker, who has drawn interest due to his young talent and versatility. Dortmund's prior offer of €34 million plus bonuses was rejected, as Köln seeks at least €50 million. El Mala's style fits with Dortmund's philosophy of developing young talent in attacking roles, suggesting he could thrive in their high-intensity environment.
