According to 237foot, Étoile Rouge de Belgrade are interested in CSKA Sofia player James Armel Eto’o and have already contacted his entourage for a potential transfer this summer. The player's value is estimated at 1.5 million euros, and his contract is valid until 2027.

Sportal.bg reports that if negotiations between CSKA and James Eto'o fail, it is possible that he may be sold as a matter of urgency in mid-February to a country where the transfer window is still open, such as leagues in the Middle and Far East.

According to Sportal.bg, James Eto'o might leave the "Reds" for free in the summer if he shows disloyalty to the club. His contract is for 2+1 years, and 24 months will have passed by the summer. For the one-year extension clause to take effect, both parties must agree. If both parties do not agree, the player can sign with another club without a transfer fee.

Cameroonian midfielder James Eto'o, 24, is not focused and his agent promises a transfer in the winter, when he can sign a contract with another club abroad for free and leave CSKA as a free agent, since his contract is 2+1 years. According to Transfermarkt, the player's current market value is €1.50m.
