Doan move in sight: Eintracht to get €17m for him

Eintracht Frankfurt are in the final stretch over Ritsu Doan’s future. As kicker reports, negotiations with Al-Ittihad are already well advanced, with the key figure set at €17 million for the Bundesliga club.

The same source adds that the deal includes a notable accounting twist: Frankfurt’s books would reflect €4 million less after the operation, so the net effect matters as much as the headline fee.

A deal to balance the books

In the Bundesliga, transfers like this often determine how quickly a side can reset its plans for the rest of the window. In Frankfurt’s case, kicker’s framing suggests the urgency is tied to the club’s financial priorities.

With everything moving late in the process, the next step is simply to confirm that the remaining details are sorted and the transaction can be finalised and made official.
