With the winter transfer window nearing its final hours, Turkish Super Lig side Göztepe are keeping a close watch on Eintracht Frankfurt winger Ansgar Knauff. The 23-year-old, a former Germany U21 international, has been on Göztepe’s radar for some time, and the club is now making a late push to secure his signature.

Reports from Turkish outlet Yeni Asır suggest that negotiations are being handled by SPORT REPUBLIC, a London-based sports investment firm that holds a majority stake in both Southampton and Göztepe FC. The club remains confident of finalizing the deal before the transfer window closes.

Knauff, who has been in solid form this season with three goals and five assists in 31 appearances across all competitions, would be a valuable addition to Göztepe’s attacking setup.

Born in Germany to Ghanaian heritage, Knauff remains eligible to represent Ghana despite featuring for Germany at the U19, U20, and U21 levels. With his future potentially taking a new turn in Turkey, fans will be watching closely to see if he makes the switch before the window shuts.
