Sky Germany journalist Dennis Bayer understands that Eintracht Frankfurt is facing competition in the race for Louey Ben Farhat. 

The Hessen club have long since been linked with the Karlsruhe SC prodigy, but the two sides have yet to reach an agreement.

In the mean time, Premier League outfit AFC Bournemouth and Southampton of the EFL Championship have joined the race.

Other potential suitors for the 20-year-old includes both Ligue 1 club LOSC Lille and RB Salzburg of the Austrian Bundesliga.

All four of these aforementioned teams have reportedly shown concrete interest, and in some cases, even submitted offers.

Frankfurt still remains in pole position for the Tunisian international, but there has been no further movement in negotiations as of late.
