Barkok to join Mainz now instead of in the summer?
Eintracht Frankfurt midfielder Aymen Barkok could join Mainz six months early.
It was recently reported that Mainz 05 have agreed a deal to sign Aymen Barkok from Eintracht Frankfurt at the end of the season.
However, it's possible that the 23-year-old will complete his move now instead of in the summer, according to Sky Germany.
Barkok and Morocco were eliminated from the Africa Cup of Nations yesterday, which makes a deal on deadline day possible.
Hoever, the parties face a race with time to get the move over the line before the transfer window closes tonight.
