Club Departure: Nkounkou and Dina Ebimbe Bid Farewell

Eintracht Frankfurt Loan Out Niels Nkounkou and Junior Dina Ebimbe

Eintracht Frankfurt has loaned out two of its players, Niels Nkounkou and Junior Dina Ebimbe, ahead of the transfer deadline. The duo, who have been with the German club for different periods, are seeking new opportunities to regain regular playing time.

Niels Nkounkou, a left-back, has been with Eintracht Frankfurt for two years. He joined the club from AS Saint-Étienne in 2020. So far, Nkounkou has played 62 games for the club, but has been only a second choice in recent times. He is moving to FC Turin on loan for the 2022-2023 season.

On the other hand, Junior Dina Ebimbe, a midfielder, has been with Eintracht Frankfurt for three years. He initially joined the club on loan from Paris Saint-Germain in 2022 and was then permanently transferred a year later. Ebimbe has played 85 games for Eintracht Frankfurt, scoring 15 goals. However, he has not been a regular starter in the recent season.

Stade Brest and FC Turin have an option to buy both players, respectively. But as of the information provided, neither Ebimbe nor Nkounkou have been bought by their respective loan clubs. Ebimbe's contract with Eintracht Frankfurt runs until the summer of 2027, while Nkounkou's contract runs until the summer of 2028.

Interestingly, Ebimbe's transfer to AS Monaco did not materialize due to a medical issue. His previous club, Paris Saint-Germain, was the club that trained him before his arrival at Eintracht Frankfurt.

Both players are hoping that their loans will provide them with the opportunity to regain regular playing time and potentially secure a permanent move in the future.
