Lassana Camara of AfricaFoot reports that Elye Wahi, who is on loan at OGC Nice from Eintracht Frankfurt, has started the official process in Paris to obtain an Ivorian passport. Should Wahi perform well at the World Cup in North America, Eintracht Frankfurt could potentially sell him in the summer for a better price than was previously expected.

According to Bild, Eintracht Frankfurt would be in a better negotiating position with potential buyers for Elye Wahi in the summer, as the loan contract with Nizza will end then.

According to Bild, coach Dino Toppmöller is tired of Elye Wahi and no longer wishes to talk about the Frenchman. The coach reportedly believes that Wahi lacks intrinsic motivation and never fully integrated into the team. A departure as early as this winter is considered more conceivable than ever for the 22-year-old centre-forward, who joined the club in January 2025. His contract is valid until 2030, and his market value is estimated by Transfermarkt at €18.00m. Olympique Lyonnais and LOSC Lille are among the clubs recently linked with him.
