Noël Aséko Nkili Reported to Be Leaving Bayern Munich
He is said to be joining Eintracht Frankfurt to secure regular first‑team minutes under coach Adi Hütter for a fee of roughly €10–12 million.
Overview
- Sport1, cited by multiple outlets on Wednesday, reported that 20‑year‑old midfielder Noël Aséko Nkili has agreed to move from Bayern Munich to Eintracht Frankfurt, though neither club has issued a formal confirmation.
- Reports say Eintracht would pay about €10–12 million and offer Nkili a deal running to 2030 with an option for an extra year.
- Nkili told reporters he wants more consistent first‑team football and named coach Adi Hütter as an important factor in his decision to prefer Frankfurt.
- The player attracted interest from clubs in England and Spain and AS Roma submitted an unsuccessful approach, according to the reporting.
- If completed, the transfer fits Eintracht’s recruitment pattern under sporting director Markus Krösche and reflects Bayern’s routine of moving young prospects to clubs where they can play more senior minutes.
