Ghanaian forward Jalal Abdulai has become one of the most sought-after young attackers in Europe, with English Championship sides Middlesbrough and Preston reportedly monitoring his situation ahead of the January window.
The 20-year-old, who is on the books of IF Elfsborg, continues to shine after an eye-catching loan spell at Norwegian giants Molde FK.
According to Swedish outlet Expressen, Abdulai’s strong campaign has sparked wider interest beyond England.
Belgian heavyweights Genk and Anderlecht, as well as Danish sides FC Midtjylland and FC Copenhagen, are all said to be pushing for a potential deal.
His form has placed him firmly on the radar of scouts across the continent, making him one of the hottest commodities ahead of the winter market.
Abdulai finished the 2025 season with eight goals and one assist from 23 matches in all competitions.
His rapid rise has already triggered conversation about a possible senior national team call-up, with some analysts tipping him as a future attacking option for Ghana ahead of the 2026 FIFA World Cup.
