As reported by klix.ba, Eintracht Frankfurt, along with Portuguese side Benfica Lisbon, has expressed interest in Esmir Bajraktarevic.

According to the report, Frankfurt and Benfica are equally monitoring the right winger's situation at PSV Eindhoven.

Both clubs are apparently considering making an official offer before the transfer deadline which is slated for Tuesday, 1 September.

One positive, according to Eindhovens Dagblad, is that the Eredivise champions want to sell the 20-time Bosnian international.

This should significantly facilitate any potential negotiations, even if Bajraktarevic's contract with Eindhoven runs until 2029.

The 21-year-old is shortlisted by the Hessen club as a potential Ritsu Dōan replacement, should the Japanese winger leave this summer.

It's understandable that Frankfurt's management is already preparing for this possibility, with Bajraktarevic high on their list.
