Eintracht Frankfurt reportedly become the latest club to register an interest in signing an in-form Wolverhampton Wanderers attacker during the summer transfer window.

Wolverhampton Wanderers are reportedly continuing to receive interest in forward Fabio Silva.

Despite productive loan stints at Anderlecht, PSV Eindhoven and Rangers, it became clear over the summer that Silva has likely played his last game for the Premier League outfit.

As such, a loan switch to Las Palmas was facilitated towards the back end of that transfer window and it has worked out far better than all parties could have envisaged.

The 22-year-old has chipped in with 10 goals and three assists, including netting at Barcelona and Real Madrid, from his 23 appearances in La Liga.

With a senior cap also been earned with Portugal, Silva is regarded as one of European football's hottest properties ahead of his likely exit from Molineux.

New team enter Silva race

According to Sky Deutschland journalist Florian Plettenberg, who was commenting on X, Eintracht Frankfurt have now enter the race for Silva's signature.

Plettenberg claims that discussions have already taken place with the relevant parties to determine whether a summer deal is plausible.

Frankfurt are said to be aware of all of the important information regarding a transfer and Silva remains "a very interesting option".

Dino Toppmoller's side have high hopes of playing in next season's Champions League. As well as sitting in third place in the Bundesliga table, they are also in the Europa League quarter-finals.

Qualification for the Champions League would create substantial additional revenue, something that may be required with Wolves allegedly setting a high asking price for Silva's signature.

Nevertheless, with the former Porto starlet's contract due to expire in 2026, Wolves are aware that they can ill-afford to price Silva out of a permanent exit.

What other clubs are interested?

Previous reports have alleged that Atletico Madrid, Real Betis and Villarreal are all contemplating moves for Silva at the end of the season.

In 100 appearances across his four loan spells, Silva has contributed 32 goals and nine assists, emphasising why clubs of the aforementioned stature are interested in signing him.

Silva's more influential displays have been away from the Premier League. Even though Wolves deserve criticism for shelling out £35m on an unproven teenager in 2020, they have a chance to redeem themselves with a lucrative sale this summer.
