According to press reports from several weeks ago, German clubs Eintracht and RB Leipzig were prepared to offer favorable terms to Vitaliy Mykolenko. The possibility of his departure from Everton is increased by his contract situation, as his current deal expires on June 30, 2026, and lengthy extension talks have not yet resulted in an agreement. More recently, however, foreign publications have reportedly named Galatasaray as the leading contender to sign the player.
