Overview

  • Multiple outlets report that Trapp is in advanced negotiations to join newly promoted Paris FC, though the clubs have yet to settle on a transfer fee.
  • Frankfurt informed the 35-year-old that he will become second-choice once Kauã Santos returns from his April cruciate ligament injury.
  • With Santos unlikely to be fit for the DFB-Pokal opener and the Bundesliga start, Eintracht is assessing options including Jens Grahl or an external signing for immediate cover.
  • Trapp’s current contract contains a clause that would automatically extend his stay by one year if he reaches a set number of Bundesliga appearances.
  • Trapp’s existing apartment in Paris and the residence of his fiancée, model Izabel Goulart, in the French capital are cited as factors making a return appealing.
