🚨 Replacing Bundesliga rival: Kevin Trapp moves to a top league
Eintracht Frankfurt has parted ways with another player. The club announced this in a press release just now. Kevin Trapp is moving to Ligue 1 newcomer Paris FC. "Today, it's hard for me to find the right words. Because I have to pack two feelings into one: anticipation and sadness at the same time: I'm looking forward to a new chapter, but at the same time, I'm sad to have to say goodbye to Eintracht for good. I was, am and will remain an eagle", Trapp is quoted in the press release. According to 'Bild', Eintracht is said to have demanded "at most a low single-digit million sum" as a transfer fee. This is now said to be one million euros, reports Florian Plettenberg. Because Kaua Santos is expected to return to the SGE goal after his injury, Trapp is now looking for a new challenge. His contract is said to run until 2028, and he may even take on a role in the club afterwards. This seems to be an attractive prospect for the goalkeeper. His successor in Frankfurt is also said to be fixed. Because 'Sky' and 'SportBild' already reported on an agreement between Eintracht Frankfurt and Werder Bremen over the weekend. The transfer fee is said to be five million euros, with an additional 800,000 euros in bonuses possible. At SGE, Zetterer is signing a contract until 2029.

A figure that the Bianconeri could only guarantee through a significant sale. Not in Italy but still want to watch Atalanta-Juventus? Do it on OneFootball! Purchase the match (viewable only outside Italy) for 2.99 euros. For this reason, the negotiation with Nottingham Forest for Douglas Luiz becomes even more relevant. The potential sale of the Brazilian would indeed allow Juventus to have the necessary resources to strike a deal for O'Riley. The club's strategy remains tied to a series of market maneuvers. Milan, Lazetic leaving. The formula Marko Lazetic is close to leaving Milan. As reported by Gianluca Di Marzio on X, the Serbian forward is expected in Scotland today to finalize the transfer to Aberdeen, where he will undergo medical examinations tomorrow. The 2004-born player will leave the Rossoneri on a free transfer, but the club on Via Aldo Rossi will retain a percentage on the player's future resale. Inter, stalemate in the sale of Palacios Inter continues to work on outgoing transfers, but the negotiation for Tomas Palacios' move to Basel has experienced a significant slowdown. The deal, which seemed close to conclusion, has stalled in recent hours. According to the dispute concerns the buyout price: the Nerazzurri are asking for 5-6 million euros, while the Swiss club aims to spend much less. The situation is at a standstill and other clubs are starting to consider stepping in for the former Monza defender. Napoli, Juanlu details Antonio Conte is close to welcoming a new reinforcement for his Napoli. It is Juanlu Sanchez, who is increasingly close to wearing the blue jersey. The negotiation, which has been ongoing for some time, seems to be entering the decisive phase with the Neapolitan club ready to speed things up.

Sevilla, which has now decided to sell the player, should receive about 17 million euros from the deal. Roma, waiting for Sancho's response Roma is waiting for Jadon Sancho: the English player has the Giallorossi's proposal on the table and the capital club is waiting to close the deal. As reported by Fabrizio Romano, Manchester United is ready to accept the offer that reaches 23 million euros between loan and purchase obligation. The Red Devils are pushing for the sale to free up the salary and raise funds. The Englishman must decide, and the agents are in contact with Roma. Lazio, Gila talks about Real Madrid Mario Gila, speaking to Radio Marca, commented on the rumors about Real Madrid: 'Being linked is pleasing, Raul at Castilla helped me grow as a man and player'. On his current situation with the Biancocelesti: 'We have quality and Pedro's experience. Without cups, we can prepare better, the goal is Europe and the Champions League would be a dream'. Finally, the derby and future: 'It's the most important match in Italy, winning would give confidence. Sarri has clear ideas, following him will bring great results. The national team call-up remains a unique emotion'. Fiorentina, the latest on Gosens According to Atalanta has made an offer of 12 million euros to bring Robin Gosens back to Bergamo, currently at Fiorentina. However, the Viola club has rejected the proposal, despite the Nerazzurri also relying on the player's connection with the city and some former teammates like De Roon. Fiorentina does not intend to open to the sale, not even in case of a higher bid from Atalanta. Only particularly high offers, perhaps from foreign clubs, could make the management reconsider, provided Gosens is willing to accept. At the moment, Pioli considers the winger an indispensable starter. This article was translated into English by Artificial Intelligence.
