German club Eintracht Frankfurt has indicated that Tunisian midfielder Ellyes Skhiri will not be part of its upcoming training camp, signalling an imminent departure. The club has lowered its asking price to roughly €1.5‑2 million, aiming to remove the player’s salary from its books. A return to his former club 1. FC Köln has been ruled out.
Mainz 05 is reported to be the closest suitor, with other interested parties including Greece’s Olympiakos Piraeus, Italy’s Torino and Fiorentina. Skhiri’s contract with Frankfurt runs until 2027, but the Bundesliga side appears willing to accept a modest fee to secure his exit.
