Can Uzun has made an impressive start to the 2025/26 season, tallying six goals and four assists in eight appearances across all competitions for Eintracht Frankfurt.

His electric form has already sparked speculation that the 19-year-old could become Eintracht’s next major sale, following in the footsteps of players like Randal Kolo Muani, Omar Marmoush and Hugo Ekitiké.

Meanwhile, Eintracht are keen to keep hold of Uzun for as long as possible, with Sport Bild reporting that sporting CEO Markus Krösche plans to open talks with the young attacker about a contract extension beyond 2027.

Die Adler want to tie Uzun, currently earning €1.5 million per season plus bonuses, to a more lucrative deal running until at least 2031. As a sign of recognition, Krösche could even hand him the No. 10 shirt.

If a transfer becomes unavoidable, Frankfurt would reportedly demand a fee of €80 million.
