Eintracht Braunschweig reaches for storm talent: Who is next?

Eintracht Braunschweig is in full swing with its squad planning for the coming season. On June 23, 2025, the club announced the signing of Lukas Frenkert as its first external signing. Frenkert, who comes on a free transfer from SC Preußen Münster, not only has an impressive height of 1.90 meters, but also valuable experience that can be of great importance for Eintracht. The 24-year-old signed a contract until June 30, 2027 with an extension option and will wear shirt number 29. Eintracht Braunschweig has thus prevailed against other interested parties from the 2nd Bundesliga; proof of the attractiveness of the project, as news38.de reports.

Frenkert himself emphasizes that the positive perception of the club motivates him to make his contribution to the team's success. With 25 appearances last season in the 2nd Bundesliga, in which he scored three goals and prepared two more, he has a high level of motivation.

Looking ahead: Further reinforcements planned

But Eintracht's plans are far from over. Managing director Benjamin Kessel is already looking for further reinforcements for the offensive. In particular, another striker has been targeted, who is also available for free. According to information from eintracht.com, Lukas Kehler from 1. FC Nürnberg, whose contract expires at the end of the month, could occupy the magical number two on the list.

Schlimer is a flexible player and should be an important asset to Eintracht if everything goes smoothly. The anticipation of his possible transfer is also supported by the expectation that Rayan Philippe will leave the club. This could bring in a large transfer fee, which is urgently needed for a replacement. The Braunschweig squad currently only includes two tall target players: Levante Szabo and Sebastian Polter, which particularly underlines the need for additional reinforcements.

However, the final decision on the transfer of Schmelzer could also depend on the presentation of the new coach. He will certainly bring in his own ideas and dream players, which will make squad planning even more exciting. So it remains to be seen which path Eintracht Braunschweig will ultimately take.
