Hull City Completes Deal to Sign Winger Jean-Matteo Bahoya from Eintracht Frankfurt
Hull City has finalized an agreement with Eintracht Frankfurt to acquire winger Jean-Matteo Bahoya. The 21-year-old French Under-21 international is reportedly enthusiastic about the transfer and has received clearance to undergo a medical examination in East Yorkshire ahead of Tuesday’s transfer deadline.
Bahoya has made a significant impact at Frankfurt, recording seven goals and eight assists in 78 appearances since his arrival from Angers in 2024. Known for his versatility, he primarily plays as a left winger but can operate in various attacking roles. He also holds the Bundesliga speed record, having been clocked at 23.09 mph during a match against Bochum in 2025.
This move could mark the Tigers’ 13th addition of the summer transfer window, reflecting the club’s commitment to strengthening Sergej Jakirovic’s squad. After achieving promotion to the Premier League through last season’s play-offs, Hull City has had a strong start to the current season, securing victories over Manchester United and Coventry City in their first two matches.
