Overview

• Kevin Trapp’s transfer talks with Paris FC have reached an advanced stage; he missed the recent DFB-Pokal match to finalize the move.
• Eintracht Frankfurt has promoted defender Robin Koch to club captain, entrusting him with leadership responsibilities in Trapp’s absence.
• In the wake of Trapp’s likely exit, Eintracht is closing in on Werder Bremen goalkeeper Michael Zetterer to provide experienced cover.
• Young keeper Kauã Santos, seen as the long-term successor, remains sidelined by a cruciate ligament injury with a return expected later in the season.
• The club’s low-cost approach—anchored by a reported €1 million fee, a multi-year Paris FC contract—reflects a pragmatic transition designed to safeguard squad stability and budget.
