Swedish midfielder Hugo Larsson, aged 21, has rejected a highly lucrative contract offer from Al Ittihad, a top club in Saudi Arabia backed by state funding. Larsson, who transferred to Eintracht Frankfurt from Malmö FF in 2023 for a fee of nine million euros, has quickly become an integral part of the team. Despite the enticing proposal from Al Ittihad, Larsson is inclined to pursue opportunities within Europe. His existing contract with Eintracht Frankfurt is valid until 2029, and the club is hopeful that he will eventually command a substantial transfer fee, although such a move does not appear likely this summer. Transfermarkt currently values him at €40 million.
