The club is preparing an imminent move for the 21-year-old French Eintracht Francfort player and wants to acquire him quickly, aiming to act before other interested parties from Europe and the Middle East. It is reported that the competition for the attacker is tight. AS Rome is also monitoring him and considers him an alternative to the high-priced Antonio Nusa.
