Reported West Ham and Tottenham target Filip Kostic is leaning towards leaving Eintracht Frankfurt, with the winger’s contract running into its final 18 months.
According to Sport Bild via GGFN, the Serbian international is one of three players who could leave the Bundesliga side this summer, with Daichi Kamada and Evan Ndicka also listed as names who could be on the move in the coming months.
Frankfurt have endured a poor season which currently sees the German club sit in 10th position. However, Kostic has been a star performer for the club, with the 29-year-old bagging three goals and 10 assists in all competitions.
With the winger providing more goals this season than the likes of Kevin De Bruyne, the former Hamburg SV star could be a solid pick up for a Premier League side, with Sport Bild noting that Kostic could leave for as little as €12m (£10m), and West Ham and Tottenham have been looking.
CalcioMercato have previously reported that Kostic is on the radar for West Ham as well as Arsenal, whilst Football London note that Tottenham are admirers of the attacker as a potential replacement for Lucas Moura.
Now, with Frankfurt seemingly setting the bar low for how much they want for Kostic, both West Ham and Tottenham could be lured into a transfer battle for the Bundesliga star, who could make for a solid addition for either club.
Kostic’s exit from Frankfurt should alert West Ham and Tottenham
With more assists than De Bruyne and providing some joy in what has been a season to forget for Frankfurt, Kostic’s desire to leave the club should be big news for both West Ham and Tottenham heading into the summer.
The attacker has been at the top of his game for Frankfurt in recent years, and in the prime of his career, Kostic could be welcome at both West Ham or Tottenham, who could do with adding more attacking and creative depth.
