Füllkrug Set for Bundesliga Return with Eintracht
Niclas Füllkrug is nearing a return to the Bundesliga, with Eintracht Frankfurt targeting the German striker to replace Omar Marmoush.
Niclas Füllkrug, the German international striker currently playing for West Ham United, is reportedly on the verge of rejoining the Bundesliga. Eintracht Frankfurt has expressed strong interest in signing Füllkrug to replace their outgoing forward, Omar Marmoush, who is close to finalizing a transfer to Manchester City.
Füllkrug, 31, moved to West Ham from Werder Bremen in the summer of 2023 after finishing as the Bundesliga’s joint top scorer in the 2022/23 season with 16 goals. Despite his goal-scoring pedigree, his time in the Premier League has been challenging, as he has struggled to adapt to the pace and physicality of English football. The situation has been further complicated by a managerial change at West Ham, with Graham Potter replacing Julen Lopetegui. Reports suggest Potter does not see Füllkrug as a fit for his tactical plans, increasing the likelihood of a January exit.
Eintracht Frankfurt, currently competing in both domestic and European competitions, sees Füllkrug as the ideal candidate to bolster their attacking options. Marmoush’s expected departure to Manchester City has left a gap in Eintracht’s forward line, and the club is preparing an offer to bring Füllkrug back to Germany. His proven track record in the Bundesliga, combined with his experience at the international level, makes him a valuable asset for Eintracht’s ambitions.
Füllkrug’s potential return to Germany would provide him with an opportunity to reignite his career in a familiar environment. His ability to hold up play, combined with his finishing skills, would significantly enhance Eintracht’s attacking dynamics. For Eintracht, signing a player of Füllkrug’s caliber would not only address their immediate needs but also strengthen their push for European qualification.
Negotiations between the clubs are reportedly at an advanced stage, and both parties are eager to finalize the transfer before the January window closes. If completed, Füllkrug’s move back to the Bundesliga could have a significant impact on the league, adding another top-tier striker to Eintracht’s ranks.
As fans and analysts eagerly await official confirmation, Füllkrug’s return could mark a pivotal moment for both the player and Eintracht Frankfurt, potentially reshaping the second half of the season for the club.
