Eintracht Frankfurt agree $5.8M for Bento
The clubs have shaken hands with TSG Hoffenheim; the player has not yet. Personal terms are next, and personal terms are where more deals die than anybody prints.

Eintracht Frankfurt bid $3.1M for Salim Musah

Eintracht Frankfurt supporters have found a favourite in Arthur Vermeeren
