Eintracht Frankfurt are considering a move for wantaway SC Freiburg goalkeeper Noah Atubolu, according to Kicker.
The report suggests that Eintracht have decided to bring in a new No. 1, with the 24-year-old seen as their “preferred solution”.
Current first-choice goalkeeper Kauã Santos has struggled with recurring injury problems and has faced plenty of criticism when fit.
Michael Zetterer is also not considered a reliable first-choice option at Deutsche Bank Park and looks likely to leave if a move for Atubolu goes through.
Atubolu has no future at Freiburg, with Mio Backhaus having been brought in as his replacement.
The 24-year-old has been linked with a number of clubs, including Olympique Marseille, Bournemouth, Juventus and Napoli, but a transfer has yet to materialise.
Kicker recently reported that Freiburg had rejected an initial offer from Marseille, with the club demanding around €15-20 million for the goalkeeper.
