November 6 According to the German media "Bild", Frankfurt defender Nathaniel Brown has developed rapidly. Now he has become a target candidate for European powers such as Arsenal, Manchester City and Real Madrid, and Frankfurt hopes to get at least 60 million euros from him.

When talking about stars who leave Frankfurt soon after excellent development, Eintracht Sporting Director Kloescher always starts with these words: "When a player develops faster than the club..." Among these players are Pacho (24 years old/Paris Saint-Germain), Malmouche (26 years old/Manchester City) or Ekitic (23 years old/Liverpool).

As for the 22-year-old Brown, Frankfurt's senior management has not yet commented in this way, but this may happen soon, because the left back continues to be amazing. Frankfurt's 0-0 Napoli game was his latest example: he won 10 of 12 duels and had a 100% dribbling success rate.

Kleser justifiably praised Brown a few days ago: "He has achieved incredible development, especially in defense. In terms of football ability, with his speed and smart way of playing, he already has extraordinary abilities."

After the battle with Naples, these are even more obvious. It was obvious in the Champions League: Brown can shine even against top European stars. In this form, he is already at the top level in his position.

Therefore, it is not surprising that many top clubs are queuing up to pay attention to him. According to "Bild" news, Arsenal, Manchester City, and Real Madrid have all included Brown on their target list, and more giants will join in the future. This summer, AC Milan wanted to sign the defender, but the player refused.

The key question is: How does Brown see his future? Although his contract does not end until 2030, with the interest of so many powerful teams, will leaving the team in the winter window become a possibility? According to Bild, at least for now, leaving the team in the winter window is not a topic at all for Brown, and this possibility can basically be ruled out.

The reason is: Brown very much hopes to participate in the 2026 World Cup. He believes that being a main player in Frankfurt is the best way for him to get opportunities, and he is fully focused here and feels very satisfied. National team coach Nagelsmann has already admired Brown very much, so he is expected to be selected into the German team's squad for the second time. Now, his chances of entering the World Cup are getting better and better.

As for what will happen in the summer, it is still uncertain. "Bild" learned: Within Frankfurt's senior management, the hope that Brown will stay after the end of the season is getting smaller and smaller, because he is already too good for Frankfurt, and Frankfurt will require at least 60 million euros in transfer fees.

It is worth mentioning that Brown has developed very rapidly. He has reached the level one year earlier than Frankfurt predicted when they signed him from Nuremberg last year. However, it is said that he has only just achieved 70% to 80% of his potential.
