Giant Nigerian striker Paul Onuachu on Eintract Frankfurt radar

Nigerian striker Paul Onuachu is subject of winter transfer interest from German Bundesliga side Eintract Frankfurt.

For the past 18 months, the Super Eagle has been on the wishlist of Eintract Frankfurt and West Ham United, Hammers boss David Moyes a keen fan of Onuachu.

Despite his importance to their team, Genk will want to cash in on Onachu who has 18-months on his current contract at the club.

According to a report from TuttoMercatoWeb, Bundesliga club Eintract Frankfurt is close to signing of the 28-year-old striker in the current transfer window.

That will come as a blow to West Ham boss David Moyes who has been linked with a move to sign the 16-capped Nigeria international for more than 18-months now.

A career that started at Nigeria Nationwide League side FC Ebedei, the giant forward holds a fairly impressive career record of 162 goals in 328 games per Transfermarkt.

Genk is asking for £19 million to let go of Onuachu who has 15 goals to his name this season.
