Eintracht Frankfurt is apparently about to sign defensive talent Aurèle Amenda. The TV channel “Sky“ reports that the SGE has agreed on a transfer with the 20-year-old central defender from BSC Young Boys. It still needs to be clarified whether Amenda will move to the Main in winter or only in summer.
According to the report, SGE officials are optimistic about signing the Swiss U21 international for the current season. Bern is currently looking for a replacement. There is a transfer fee between 8 million and 10 million euros – plus bonuses. Either way, Amenda would join the ten most expensive signings in SGE history, possibly even coming in third place with Farès Chaïbi (21), who cost 10 million euros in the summer. Amenda has a contract in Frankfurt until 2028 with an option for another year.

In the latest market value update in Switzerland, he was the biggest winner – he went up by 2 million to 5 million euros. This makes him the third most valuable professional in the Super League.
