Manchester United can be added to the list of admirers for Eintracht Frankfurt’s rising star Nathaniel Brown. They have him ‘on their radar’, the same as Arsenal, Manchester City and Real Madrid.
[That’s according to BILD](https://wiwsport.com/2025/11/14/iliman-ndiaye-le-bresil-voudra-prendre-sa-revanche-mais-on-va-se-donner-a-fond-pour-faire-un-bon-resultat/), who cover Brown today and how Eintracht are looking at a big figure if he is to leave next summer.
The newspaper reports that Manchester United, Manchester City, Arsenal and Real Madrid all have the full back on their radar. Arsenal and Manchester City were also credited with an interest back in October.
That’s because Brown is continuing to impress for the German side. He has been regularly delivering top performances for them, including in the Champions League.
It’s been an impressive rise for a player who cost just €3m last year and didn’t initially even make it into the Frankfurt squad. Now he’s a key player and putting in performances worthy of that title.
The question now is not whether Brown will leave, but when. Eintracht know this and expect to receive ‘a huge transfer fee’ for the 22-year-old.
They’re aware of the interest from Manchester United and others. And they’ve set their sights on a big deal. Indeed, they think he’s worth at least the €63.5m Chelsea paid for Marc Cucurella. And sporting director Markus Krösche is willing to accept that.
“Yes! Because he has three exceptional abilities that you can’t learn,” he said when asked if they expect a ‘similar fee’.
“He’s smart and tactically astute, has fantastic technique, and is very fast. And all of that is necessary to have a great career ahead of him.
“Now is the wrong time to think about who might leave us and when. They’re both young and should stay with us a while longer. Can (Uzun) has developed tremendously compared to last year. It’s a shame he’s injured now.
“And Nene (Brown) is simply exceptional. He’s made outstanding progress, especially when it comes to defending at a high level. Just look at how he plays against top opponents in the Champions League.”
