But Thomas Tuchel's men will have stiff competition.
According to reporter , Barcelona, Bayern Munich and Ajax are also interested in signing Bardghji.

He put his side 2-1 up in the 31st minute with a long-range effort.
Bardghji was born in Kuwait, but represents Sweden at international level.
The left-footed starlet has made four appearances for his country's Under-17s, scoring in matches against Denmark and Switzerland.
Copenhagen will try and keep their young star.
Boss Jess Thorup told Danish broadcaster TV3: ";The new strategy is to give more talents a chance.
“But it is not the intention that see play only a few games here and then leave. These players have to want to stay here for a few years to help Copenhagen get great results.
“If really big clubs come, of course, the finances will play a role. But I don’t think he’s ripe for a transfer yet.”
