German Bundesliga side Eintracht Frankfurt have started plans towards next season by listing players they will likely use to improve their team in certain areas, OGN reports.
Placed 9th on the Bundesliga table but with a chance of still making it to Europe if they win the DFB-Pokal final against RB Leipzig, the team will lose some of the key players who have helped them to find their way back to reckoning in Germany and also Europe.
In a bid not to be caught unaware, plans have already started towards recruiting players who will replace those that are expected to leave the club in the summer transfer window. Among their targets is Nigeria international winger Moses Simon.
OGN exclusively gathered that Simon is one of their priorities in the market and they are hoping to reach a deal with Nantes with a year left on the deal of Simon at the Ligue 1 side. A fee in the region of €8m will be enough to tempt Nantes into parting ways with the 27 year old.
However they are not the only team keen on the winger who has managed double digits goal contribution since his move to the French side on a permanent transfer from Spanish side Levante. Atalanta, Lazio and Fiorentina are the other teams pushing for his signing in the summer.
