A reported upon contract extension and loan-out for American attacking midfielder Paxten Aaronson of Eintracht Frankfurt has been confirmed. The 20-year-old - having enjoyed some success with Vitesse Arnhem in the second half of the 2023/24 Erdevisie season - will remain in Holland. Aaronson's parent club have arranged a loan to FC Utrecht for the youngster. The New Jersey native extended his SGE contract by one year as part of the deal.
"Paxten Aaronson has already shown a lot of promise with us and showed flashes of his potential," Eintracht sporting director Timmo Hardung noted in a statement, "As hoped, the loan to Vitesse Arnhem and playing time associated therewith has given him a boost. It's important for him that he stays with us and continues to get playing time."
"Utrecht serves as good environment," Hardung's statement continued, "It's club where he can take the next step in his development. We're totally convinced [of Paxton's abilities] and are certain that he will thrive in the Bundesliga after his time in Utrecht."
