Eintracht Frankfurt are pressing to complete the signing of Louey Ben Farhat from Karlsruhe SC after submitting a €9 million offer. Reports indicate the German club have reached an agreement with the player himself, though negotiations with his current employers continue.
Karlsruhe SC are prepared to sanction the transfer for €10 million, creating a valuation gap of €1 million. Sources suggest this difference is not expected to prevent the deal from being concluded, with both parties working towards a compromise.
The remaining discussions centre on the structure of the agreement. Officials are currently negotiating over a potential sell-on clause and various performance bonuses that would form part of the final package. These details represent the primary obstacles to the transfer being finalised.
Sky Germany reports that Ben Farhat has already agreed personal terms and wishes to join Frankfurt. This development places the purchasing club in a strong position to complete the acquisition once the financial terms with Karlsruhe are resolved. The player’s desire to make the switch is expected to accelerate the final stages of negotiation between the two clubs.
Dzanovic departs for Austria
In related squad news, Frankfurt have confirmed that Benjamin Dzanovic has moved to Admira Wacker. The transfer will see the Austrian side acquire the player without paying a fee.
The club officially announced the departure, confirming Dzanovic will represent the Austrian outfit next season. This exit comes as Frankfurt focus on securing Ben Farhat’s signature, with officials hopeful the remaining valuation gap can be bridged through further negotiation on clauses and bonus payments.
The twin moves illustrate Frankfurt’s ongoing squad adjustments. Securing Ben Farhat remains the immediate priority, with the agreement on personal terms providing momentum as talks with Karlsruhe enter their final phase.
