+++ September 25: Frankfurt set for financial windfall +++

Eintracht Frankfurt made it their mission in the past transfer summer to streamline their squad and generate a significant transfer profit. In this regard, they are already on a good path for the coming summer.

According to Bild, Frankfurt negotiated easily achievable clauses in the loans of Hugo Larsson and Jean-Mattéo Bahoya that could turn the loan deals into real million-euro transactions or have already done so.

In Larsson's case, a mandatory purchase clause of around 25 million euros was triggered after his first appearance for Fulham FC. Jean-Mattéo Bahoya could bring in five million euros more, but only if he plays ten times for Leeds United. He has already made his first appearance.

+++ September 25: Ter Stegen facing next move? +++

The role as number one under new national team manager Jürgen Klopp is giving Barcelona hope that they can still make some money from the 34-year-old goalkeeper in the coming summer.

Ter Stegen is currently on loan at Dutch record champions Ajax Amsterdam. However, according to Sport, several Premier League clubs have him on their radar.

Ter Stegen's contract with Barcelona is dated until 2028. However, the former captain has no future there.

+++ September 25: Dani Olmo to Bayern Munich in winter? +++

Wild rumor: According to Turkish transfer expert Ekrem Konur, Barcelona star Dani Olmo could return to the Bundesliga in winter and join Bayern Munich. The German record champions' officials are reportedly considering acquiring the Spanish player.

The speculation around Olmo is reportedly linked to growing interest in Michael Olise and Jamal Musiala. Whether Barcelona would let the attacking player leave remains unclear.

+++ September 24: New club for former Borussia Dortmund star +++

Transfer surprise involving Mo Dahoud. The two-time German international, who played in the Bundesliga for Borussia Mönchengladbach, Borussia Dortmund, VfB Stuttgart and most recently for Eintracht Frankfurt, is continuing his career at UAE Pro League newcomer Dubai United. The club teased this on its Instagram channel with an image showing Dahoud's silhouette.

In Dubai, Dahoud will be trained by Italian midfield legend Andrea Pirlo. He will also meet former Frankfurt player Haris Seferovic.

+++ September 24: Rejection for Borussia Dortmund +++

In their search for new talent, Borussia Dortmund reportedly found something in the American MLS during the past transfer summer. However, the club allegedly received a rejection in their pursuit of an attacking youngster. Details on the rumor can be found here.

+++ September 24: Crazy price tag for Bayern Munich target revealed +++

Recently, rumors circulated that Bayern Munich showed interest in English international Morgan Gibbs-White from Nottingham Forest and was even among the clubs leading the way in a supposed pursuit. Now it has become known that an obstacle of seemingly insurmountable proportions stands in the way of a deal: the transfer fee. More on this can be found here.

+++ September 24: Does Bayern trade Kane for Wirtz? +++

In recent days, there has been speculation that Bayern Munich could make a move for Florian Wirtz from Liverpool FC in winter. The supposedly enormous transfer fee that the Reds would demand for the most expensive German footballer to date is considered a major hurdle.

The portal Caught Offside came up with an idea to reduce it. However, the scenario only seems realistic to a limited extent.

According to the report, Bayern Munich could lower the Wirtz price by sending a top star to Liverpool in return. Harry Kane is mentioned in this context. While it sounds unlikely, there are indeed "many reasons" for this step, it is said. Kane's age and his expiring contract are cited. However, the latter is likely to be extended soon, and the former simply hasn't been an issue on the pitch so far.

Caught Offside names Alphonso Davies as a second option, a considerably more realistic trade candidate.

+++ September 23: Immediate Eriksen departure from Wolfsburg +++

VfL Wolfsburg and Christian Eriksen are parting ways effective immediately. The contract, which was dated until next summer, was terminated by mutual agreement, as the second-division club announced.

Eriksen stated that it is important for him right now to be close to his family in Denmark. He expressed his pleasure that they were able to find a solution together. He noted that his time at Wolfsburg was marked by many highs and lows. He stated his belief that the club is now in good hands to make the way back to the Bundesliga and is convinced that Wolfsburg has a successful future ahead.

Wolfsburg's sporting director Dieter Hecking emphasized that Eriksen has already experienced and achieved much in his extraordinary career. He noted how remarkable it is how approachable and down-to-earth they got to know him at Wolfsburg. Despite the short time, he said, Eriksen has left a lasting impression on his teammates, staff and fans.

The Dane joined the Lower Saxony club last September.

+++ September 23: Alaba's surprise transfer (almost) done +++

Surprise transfer (almost) complete: David Alaba has arrived at his new employer Udinese Calcio from Italian Serie A. Video footage confirms this.

If the 34-year-old Austrian passes the mandatory medical examination, the deal is in the bag.

Alaba's contract with Real Madrid expired at the end of last season. Since then, the long-time Bayern Munich professional has been searching for a new club.

Alaba was recently also linked with Union Berlin. However, a Bundesliga comeback for the defender is not happening.
