Lucas Alario to Eintracht Frankfurt

Eintracht Frankfurt are in advanced talks to sign 29-year-old Argentine forward Lucas Alario from Bayer Leverkusen for a reported €6.5m, according to Kicker. Alario will likely leave B04 this summer following the contract extension of Patrik Schick and arrival of Adam Hložek, dropping him further down the pecking order.

Alario has a preference to remain in Europe for now, with interest also coming from Italian and South American clubs. With six Bundesliga goals last season, Alario wants continuous minutes to improve his chances of representing Argentina at the World Cup in Qatar.
