Bournemouth is one of several Premier League clubs that has observed Bayer Leverkusen's attacking midfielder Ibrahim Maza in recent weeks, and Brighton and Brentford have also been monitoring him. Manchester City, Chelsea, and Aston Villa are also monitoring the 20-year-old. He holds both Algerian and German citizenship and moved to Leverkusen from Hertha Berlin last season. The Algerian international has 15 caps and 2 goals, and has attracted attention for his versatility across midfield and attack. It is said that Leverkusen views Maza, whose contract runs until 2030, as a key part of their long-term project, but the growing interest from England is expected to challenge their intention to keep him. His current Transfermarkt market value is €40.00m. According to an April 2026 report, Paris Saint-Germain is prepared to offer up to €90 million. In the same month, a €50 million bid from Manchester City was reportedly rejected. An offer of €35 million from Atlético Madrid was also deemed insufficient in March 2026.
