Batshuayi leaves Frankfurt for Saudi Arabia
Eintracht confirms transfer. The end of a misunderstanding: Michy Batshuayi, who joined the Hessian club with great enthusiasm in winter 2025, is leaving after eighteen months. Eintracht is making space in the squad and saving on salary.
Michy Batshuayi is moving to Saudi Arabian club Abha. Eintracht announced this on Monday evening. The Belgian joined Eintracht from Galatasaray in February 2025, scoring four goals in 21 appearances. The club kept the press release relatively brief, concluding with: "Eintracht Frankfurt wishes Michy Batshuayi all the best for his future." No further statement was issued.
According to the Bild newspaper, the striker earned around three million euros in base salary at the Hessians. The paper also reports that a move for Elye Wahi to Nice is on the horizon. This further underscores Eintracht's efforts to minimize the squad and remove top earners from the payroll.
Only one goal last season
After his winter transfer in 2025, Batshuayi scored three goals in ten games in the second half of the season, contributing to the qualification for the Champions League. Throughout the entire past season, he struggled with foot injuries and form crises, netting only a single goal in all competitions – a 1-1 equalizer in Wolfsburg in November, converted from a penalty after coming on as a substitute.
Coach Adi Hütter therefore had no use for the striker and also excluded him from training. Abha is now Batshuayi's eleventh club since 2016.
