Newcastle set to miss out on Said El Mala as Brighton close in Newcastle United are taking a look at winger Said El Mala, according to the Daily Mail’s Craig Hope . Newcastle reportedly sent scouts to Germany to watch the 19-year-old, who had bagged nine goals and three assists in 26 league appearances for Koln this term. The Magpies believe El Mala is the profile they want this summer.

However, that report acknowledged there would be competition for his signature. Newcastle might miss out on El Mala. Brighton & Hove Albion already submitted a written offer of up to €30 million in January without success.

According to Sport Bild , the Seagulls have reestablished contact with Koln to sign the Newcastle target this summer. They want to finalise the deal as quickly as possible. The report also mentions that his parents have now permitted him to join another club.

The parents recently took over representing their sons, Said and Malek, parting ways with the agency Footfeel. Interestingly, Brighton are keen on signing both brothers this summer. A transfer fee of around €35 million, plus bonuses and a percentage of any future sale, is being discussed.
