As reported by French sports paper L'Équipe, Eintracht Frankfurt is monitoring Darryl Bakola of Olympique Marseille.

A possible signing of the talented youngster is already being considered for the upcoming winter transfer window in January.

However, other big clubs also have the 17-year-old on their radar and Bakola earns a generous salary of €35,000 per month for his age.

Furthermore, Marseille also rate the central midfielder very highly and want to extend the teenager's contract which runs until 2027. 

Bakola is still hesitant given as he is only sixth in the Ligue 1 club's midfield pecking order which could tempt him towards Frankfurt.

Bakola is now the third midfielder to be linked with Frankfurt after Brentford's Vitaly Janelt and Kaishu Sano of Mainz in recent days.
