Eintracht Frankfurt: Elye Wahi open to OGC Nice return

During the last winter transfer window, OGC Nice welcomed Ivorian international Elye Wahi on loan. Now back at Eintracht Frankfurt, the player is open to a return.

Struggling at Eintracht Frankfurt, Elye Wahi has scored 9 goals and provided 2 assists in 19 appearances across all competitions. OGC Nice tried to keep the Ivorian international, but the striker returned to Germany.

Already loaned to OGC Nice by Eintracht Frankfurt, Elye Wahi (23) is the top priority for Les Aiglons this transfer window.❤️🖤🇨🇮

The German club prefers a permanent transfer over a second loan, but that option seems difficult to achieve.💰

In Germany, Eintracht Frankfurt is still hoping to part ways with him. According to RMC Sport, OGC Nice is not backing down and is still dreaming of bringing him back on another loan. However, there’s a snag.

Indeed, Eintracht Frankfurt only wants to discuss a permanent transfer for now. For his part, Wahi is not opposed to rejoining Les Aiglons, now managed by Olivier Pantaloni.

🚨 ELYE WAHI 🇨🇮 OPEN TO A RETURN TO NICE! 👀❤️🖤

Le Gym wants to bring the striker back on loan, and the player isn’t against it.

The issue: Eintracht Frankfurt is refusing for now and only considering a permanent transfer.
