Along with Felix Uduokai, Eintracht is looking at a wider list of candidates to fill Pacho's spot, at least in the short term. Left center-back Bernardo from Bochum is on the list. The left-footed 29 year old has a Transfermarkt price of €5.5M.

Also on Krösche's list for consideration: Armel-Bella Kotchap at Southampton. The right-footed 22 year old center-back has a €12M price at Transfermarkt.

From Bild:
Suddenly new defense candidates at Eintracht:

After the departure of W.P. to PSG, Eintracht need a new IV. Desired candidate K. Koulierakis from PAOK.

Shortening: Because of CL-qualification and the "difficult president" of PAOK, they are looking elsewhere, as Toppi demands early reinforcement. Should PAOK pass against Malmö, the play-offs on 20 & 27.08. are only.

No quick solution in sight at the moment.

As Bild learned and also shortened: Bernardo from Bochum (29 / contract 2026) and Armel-Bella Kotchap FCS (22/2026) is Eintracht's turn. ABK also traded VFB and TSG.

Plus Eintracht has inquired about Felix Uduokhai.
