Said El Mala (FC Cologne) - Market value: €45 million
Said El Mala is a Bundesliga-proven player despite being only 19 years old. In the Bundesliga, El Mala scored 13 goals and added 5 assists, appearing in all 34 games. El Mala is a direct winger with exceptional speed and dribbling. His pace, creativity and ability to work on his own make him one of the most sought-after youngsters in the world.
The 19-year-old is dangerous on counterattacks. Bayern Munich witnessed his brilliance first-hand in the last game of the season when he blazed past three to four Bayern defenders to score for Cologne.
This season, he has also been deployed 11 times as a striker, during which he scored 4 goals and had 1 assist. El Mala could be a future-proof signing for Bayern Munich, especially with Luis Diaz turning 30 soon. However, his lack of European experience might make him less enticing for the team's win-now mentality.
Said El Mala's contract with Cologne runs until 2030, which suggests they can demand quite a hefty price for a player of his talent.
