Since the season began, Aurèle Amenda has been limited to just 376 minutes across 11 appearances in all competitions for Eintracht Frankfurt.

Now, Amenda’s agent, Jose Noguera Rodriguez, has made it very clear that this is not enough for the 22-year-old, who is considering leaving the club during the winter transfer window.

"Aurèle is an ambitious and professional player who has devoted himself to Eintracht in every way. He respects his long-term contract. Nevertheless, we must honestly acknowledge that his playing time does not match his expectations or his potential," the agent told Frankfurter Rundschau.

Amenda is said to have attracted interest from several Ligue 1 clubs, with OGC Nice among them. According to Frankfurter Rundschau, Torino are also interested, having first shown interest last summer.

"As a young Swiss international, Aurèle needs regular playing time at the highest level to continue developing. The World Cup is coming up this summer," Noguera Rodriguez said.

"We respect the coaching staff’s decisions, but we also see that other clubs are showing great interest in Aurèle’s qualities. In January, we will examine all options that are best for his sporting development. If an opportunity arises where Aurèle can get the playing time he deserves, we will seriously consider it," he added.
