Germany and Equatorial Guinea defensive midfielder Noel Aseko of Hannover 96 is being linked with a summer move to Bundesliga side Eintracht Frankfurt from FC Bayern II.
The 20-year-old, born in Berlin and standing at 1.78m, is rated at €12.00m on Transfermarkt, with the reported probability of the switch currently put at 38%. Data from Germany lists him as part of the Bayern Munich second team in the Regionalliga Bayern, while he is also registered with Hannover 96, where he wears the number 15 shirt. His contractual situation has not been clarified, with no expiry date listed – a factor that has fuelled speculation he could yet be available as a free agent if no new deal is formally in place.
Frankfurt are said to be exploring options to reinforce their midfield ahead of the new campaign and view Aseko primarily as cover in the defensive midfield role. Capable of operating as a holding midfielder and using his right foot, he offers a profile that fits the club’s strategy of recruiting younger talents with resale potential.
Aseko, who holds both German and Equatorial Guinean nationality, has developed his reputation in the German system, featuring in the Regionalliga Bayern with FC Bayern II, and his performances there have helped drive his valuation into eight figures. Recent match data from the 2025-26 campaign lists him as part of Bayern’s regional league set-up, facing fourth-tier opposition as he continues his senior development, although detailed statistics on individual games, such as opponents, scores and minute-by-minute contributions, have not been publicly updated in full.
With his future club status and contract details still unclear, the coming weeks will determine whether Aseko remains within the Bayern-Hannover pathway, moves to Frankfurt for a significant fee, or even edges towards free-agent territory – a decision that could prove pivotal in shaping the next phase of his career and his standing in German football.
