Lens accepts Bundesliga offer for OpenDA, transfer fee of 40 million euros.

The Lens football club has accepted an offer from German Bundesliga side, Eintracht Frankfurt for the loan of forward, Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang. The deal will see the player move to Frankfurt on loan for the remainder of the season and then return to Lens at the end of the campaign.

Aubameyang is currently out of contract with Arsenal after his release clause was activated in January. He has been linked with a number of clubs including Manchester City and Inter Milan but has yet to sign a new contract.

Eintracht Frankfurt have signed Aubameyang on loan until the end of the season and he will be eligible to play for them in all competitions. The club have also announced that they will pay the 40 million euros transfer fee upfront.

This is a significant coup for Eintracht Frankfurt who were relegated from the Bundesliga last season. They had been looking for a high profile signing to boost their squad ahead of the upcoming season and this looks set to do just that.

The move is expected to give Aubameyang the opportunity to regain form and prove himself once again as one of Europe's top strikers. It also gives him the chance to make a name for himself at a new club and potentially earn a new contract elsewhere.

Aubameyang has previously played for Arsenal, Dortmund and Barcelona before joining Arsenal on a free transfer in January 2018. He has scored over 250 goals for Arsenal across 19 seasons and is widely regarded as one of the greatest forwards of his generation.

This is a big step up for Aubameyang and it remains to be seen whether he can adapt to the physicality and pace of the Bundesliga. However, if he can perform well for Eintracht Frankfurt, there could be opportunities for him to move permanently to a bigger club in the future.
