The German team has been impressed with his performances so far and is ready to sign the Moroccan permanently.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Leicesters_financial_boost\"><\/span>Leicester&#8217;s financial boost<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p class=\"p1\">Leicester City received a transfer fee of around 3.5 million euros for the player, with the German team having the option to make him a permanent transfer for a fee of around 18.5 million euros. It will be interesting to see if they are willing to pay in the coming months.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">There is no doubt that the Moroccan is a promising player of high quality and could develop into a star for the German national team. They have the financial power to make a deal and it would not be surprising if they decide to pay a buyout for a player. The midfielder has scored two goals in four league games for the German club.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">Meanwhile, Leicester City are in financial trouble and need to make ends meet. Selling the midfielder on a permanent basis would be ideal for them.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">They are currently competing in the Championship and aim to return to the top league soon. They need money to strengthen their squad and selling the Moroccan talent would be ideal for them. It could help them acquire quality players.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Bilal_El_Kanus_will_be_keen_on_this_move\"><\/span>Bilal El Kanus will be keen on this move<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<figure class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><picture><source type=\"image\/webp\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/icdn.caughtoffside.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/Bilal-El-Khannouss-of-Leicester-City-414x318.jpg.webp 414w,https:\/\/icdn.caughtoffside.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/Bilal-El-Khannouss-of-Leicester-City-630x484.jpg.webp 630w,https:\/\/icdn.caughtoffside.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/Bilal-El-Khannouss-of-Leicester-City-768x589.jpg.webp 768w,https:\/\/icdn.caughtoffside.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/Bilal-El-Khannouss-of-Leicester-City-770x591.jpg.webp 770w,https:\/\/icdn.caughtoffside.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/Bilal-El-Khannouss-of-Leicester-City-900x691.jpg.webp 900w,https:\/\/icdn.caughtoffside.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/Bilal-El-Khannouss-of-Leicester-City.jpg.webp 1200w\" data-sizes=\"(min-width:1230px) 770px, (min-width:1020px) 630px, (min-width:900px) 880px, (min-width:680px) 97vw, (min-width:414px) 414px, 100vw\"><\/source><\/picture><figcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Bilal El Kanous playing for Leicester City (Photo by Michael Regan\/Getty Images)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p class=\"p1\">The midfielder, on the other hand, would not want to compete in the second tier of English football.
