Manager wants to reunite with West Ham player – considering ‘another attempt to sign him’

Eintracht are considering a move to Frankfurt west ham unitedSongoutou Magasa this summer.

West Ham beat off competition from the German club to sign the defensive midfielder from AS Monaco in August 2025.

Last August, Sports Witness Covered claims from France Eintracht Frankfurt attempted to snatch his signature from the Hammers but were not successful.

The Frenchman played 1,259 minutes in 22 matches, of which 280 minutes were from four FA Cup matches. He has seen his playing time limited this year and has only played 70 minutes in the Premier League since February.

Door open for West Ham player

Eintracht Frankfurt finished eighth in the table while West Ham United dropped out of the top spot.

The German club have confirmed that Adi Hütter, who spent three years between 2018 and 2021, will return to the club.

He previously managed Songoutou Magassa at AS Monaco and under his command, the current West Ham man played 53 matches. The manager knows French well and his profile suits the requirements of the German club.

Eintracht Frankfurt are looking to bring the 22-year-old back this season in a bid to please their manager. They could take advantage of the London club’s slide in the Championship to secure his signature for a reasonable deal.

Taking these factors into account, Bild said the Bundesliga side are ‘considering another attempt to sign him.’

Eintracht Frankfurt sporting director Markus Kroesch was criticized for signing a defensive midfielder last summer. The report insists the club have, in a way, paid the price for it and Magasa could be the solution this summer.

As well as the former Monaco man, VfL Wolfsburg’s Patrick Wimmer is also on their agenda. Following Wolfsburg’s relegation, the Austrian has a clause that allows him to leave for less than €12m.

magasa has to decide

Bild have made no mention of whether Soungoutou Magasa is interested in joining Eintracht Frankfurt if they push for his signature.

In fact, there is no indication whether the player wants to leave West Ham United or not. He has a contract until 2031, worth €17m transfer market.

The midfielder must first decide whether he wants to play in the Championship or go on a loan/permanent transfer.

Could Nick Bosa reunite with brother? Major move opens door for 49ers to get another Bosa

The first week of NFL free agency was complete chaos. Deals were flying left and right, with trades, surprise signings and roster shakeups happening faster than fans could refresh their timelines. The Bay Area is feeling the same stir as the San Francisco 49ers work on reshaping their roster for the 2026 season.

San Francisco is already active on the open market and is bringing in veteran wide receiver Mike Evans to add offense, as well as reuniting with linebacker Dre Greenlaw. The front office added more depth up front, signing offensive linemen Wedarian Lowe and Brett Toth to strengthen the trenches.

But it’s not just about additions. The 49ers have also seen several departures as the organization continues to realign the roster and approach their salary cap heading into the new season. And now, Santa Clara’s latest move involves a big front office decision regarding star pass rusher Nick Bosa.

San Francisco 49ers restructure Nick Bosa’s contract

NFL Network insider Tom Pelissero reports on the Ax that the 49ers have reworked Nick Bosa’s contract, freeing up $17.172 million in cap space for the 2026 season. Despite the restructuring, Bosa is still set to make $23.18 million this year, while his 2027 cap hit now increases to $54,866,753.

The move comes at an interesting time for San Francisco’s defensive front.

Earlier this offseason, edge rusher Bryce Huff shocked the league by announcing his retirement at just 27 years old. Huff, who joined the 49ers via trade in 2025, departs after a six-year NFL career that included 24 sacks and 108 total tackles. His sudden exit leaves the 49ers thin in their pass-rush rotation and removes a key edge option opposite Bosa.

With Huff no longer in the picture, the 49ers created some financial relief by restructuring Bosa’s deal — a move that could prompt more roster moves as the front office reshapes the defensive line.

Bosa has been the anchor of San Francisco’s defense since the team selected him with the No. 2 overall pick in the 2019 NFL Draft out of Ohio State. He made an immediate impact, winning NFL Defensive Rookie of the Year, and later solidified himself as one of the league’s most dominant pass rushers by earning Defensive Player of the Year honors in 2022.

Interestingly, the 49ers were also viewed as a potential landing spot for Joey Bosa last season before he ultimately signed with the Buffalo Bills.

Now back on the market after finishing the 2025 season with five sacks and 54 pressures — ranked 24th among edge defenders with at least 100 pass-rush snaps, according to PFF — Spotrac estimates his market value is around $13.7 million per year.

If San Francisco were to make a move for Joey Bosa, the veteran could help ease some of the workload from Leonard Williams, handling early-down snaps on the defensive end while allowing the 2025 first-rounder to kick inside more often and focus on rushing the passer.
