Overview
- Eintracht Frankfurt confirmed the signing of 22-year-old striker Younes Ebnoutalib from SV Elversberg on a deal to 2031 for about €8 million plus up to €2 million in bonuses, with Markus Krösche praising his physicality and goal threat.
- Elversberg parts with the 2. Bundesliga's leading scorer this season, banking a club-record sale roughly a year after acquiring Ebnoutalib for a modest fee.
- BVB sporting director Sebastian Kehl said the club expects only limited winter activity focused on trimming the squad, indicating one or two moves rather than new signings.
- Reports suggest Liverpool is preparing an opening bid of around €20 million for Karim Adeyemi, far below Dortmund’s reported valuation near €60 million.
- Spanish reports link Real Madrid to Nico Schlotterbeck in a cash-plus-prospects idea involving Diego Aguado and Gonzalo Garcia, while Sevilla is exploring a loan for Julien Duranville, HSV is in talks for Almugera Kabar, Sebastian Kehl has ruled out a Filippo Mane exit for now, and Axel Disasi is reportedly leaning toward AS Roma instead of BVB.
