In recent years, the Bundesliga has continued to serve as a breeding ground for Europe’s brightest young talents, and one name steadily rising through the ranks is Nathaniel Brown.
The 22-year-old left-back, currently plying his trade at Eintracht Frankfurt, has been making waves with his consistent and assured performances. Now, some of the Premier League’s biggest clubs are beginning to take notice.
Man City and Arsenal lead Nathaniel Brown race
Among the clubs closely monitoring his progress are Manchester City, Newcastle United, Aston Villa, Manchester United and Arsenal, sources close to the agents industry have informed CaughtOffside.
Both City and Arsenal are believed to be weighing up the possibility of opening talks in the near future, as they look to strengthen their options on the left side of defense.
What makes Brown such an appealing target is not just his age but also his playing profile. A naturally left-footed defender, he brings balance to any backline and is equally adept operating in a traditional back four or as a wing-back.
Brown, who has established himself as a reliable presence in Frankfurt’s backline, is contracted with the German club until 2030.
While it remains unclear whether his long-term deal includes a release clause, the absence of one could put Frankfurt in a very strong position when it comes to dictating terms in any future negotiations.
