Eintracht Frankfurt and Cameroonian defender Jerome Onguéné have officially ended their association, the German club confirmed.
The 27-year-old, who joined the Bundesliga side in 2022, departs after a spell marked by limited opportunities on the pitch.
Onguéné, who had previously showcased his abilities at clubs such as Red Bull Salzburg and Genoa, struggled to find a place in Eintracht’s lineup.
Despite being brought in with high expectations, the defender failed to make a single competitive appearance for the German side.
Since signing with Eintracht Frankfurt, Onguéné’s career has involved a series of loan spells and brief stints.
He returned to Red Bull Salzburg, where he had enjoyed success earlier in his career, and also spent time on loan with Italian club Genoa.
On the international stage, the defender has represented both the Cameroonian national team and France at the U20 level.
Onguéné’s departure marks a turning point for both the player and the club.
The agreement to terminate his contract signals a fresh start as the defender looks to revive his career elsewhere.
While details regarding his next move remain undisclosed, Onguéné’s experience across Europe and his international pedigree may present opportunities to reestablish himself in competitive football.
Meanwhile, Eintracht Frankfurt will aim to focus on players better aligned with the club’s future plans.
The termination concludes a chapter that never truly began for Jerome Onguéné at the Deutsche Bank Park.
