A few weeks ago, German clubs Eintracht Frankfurt and RB Leipzig were prepared to offer favorable terms to Vitaliy Mykolenko. The speculation is fueled by his contract situation at Everton, which expires on June 30, 2026. Despite prolonged negotiations, the parties have not yet reached an agreement on an extension, which could lead to a January transfer so the club can receive a fee. However, the situation has reportedly shifted in recent days, and Champions League participant Galatasaray is now the favorite to sign the player.
