As Sky Germany reports, Eintracht Frankfurt is considering signing Raphael Onyedika from Club Brugge.

The 24-year-old from Nigeria is under contract with the Belgian giants, with his current deal valid until 2027.

Onyedika, a defensive midfielder by trade, was already being talked about by numerous top European clubs last January.

Bayern Munich and Borussia Dortmund were also mentioned as potential suitors by English newspaper The Telegraph.

Frankfurt reportedly also considered a transfer for Onyedika last summer, but ultimately a deal never materialized. 

The Hessen club's second transfer candidate is Ismael Doukouré from Strasbourg but the report doesn't specify how much the 22-year-old would cost.
