Nigeria midfielder Anthony Dennis is being linked with a move from Göztepe to Eintracht Frankfurt, with the Bundesliga side monitoring the 21-year-old’s rapid rise in Türkiye.
The defensive midfielder, currently valued at €5.00m, is the subject of transfer talk surrounding a potential switch from the Süper Lig to Germany’s top flight, according to data compiled on 25 December 2025. The reported probability of the move is listed only as “?”, underlining that discussions remain at the speculative stage rather than an advanced negotiation.
Dennis, who wears the number 30 shirt for Göztepe, has no publicly listed contract expiry date, raising the prospect that his situation could evolve towards a free-agency scenario if no extension is agreed. That uncertainty is likely to encourage interest from Frankfurt, who have a track record of developing young talents from emerging markets.
Born in Kaduna on 21 June 2004, Dennis has emerged as a specialist in defensive midfield, operating primarily in front of the back four and favouring his right foot. Since stepping up from Göztepe’s U19 side in July 2023, his market value has surged from €25,000 in late 2023 to €5.00m by October 2025, reflecting his growing influence and consistency in the Süper Lig.
The Nigerian began his senior pathway at HB Academy Abuja before moving to Göztepe’s youth ranks in January 2023, adapting quickly to European football and earning promotion to the first team six months later. His performances in Türkiye’s top division have drawn wider attention, even though no individual match statistics or standout fixtures are specified in the available data.
Should a move to Frankfurt eventually materialise, it would mark a significant step in Dennis’s career, offering a platform in the Bundesliga to enhance his reputation and test his potential at a higher competitive level.
