Eintracht Frankfurt are considering re-signing Arnaud Kalimuendo in January, according to Bulinews' source Absolut Eintracht. The club had previously loaned the 24-year-old from Nottingham Forest last season. Kalimuendo scored six goals in 19 appearances during his loan spell. The initial purchase option was €27 million, beyond Frankfurt's financial reach.
Negotiations broke down last season due to the high purchase option, but Frankfurt may now be in a better position to secure Kalimuendo's services. A potential loan deal with an option or obligation to buy is being considered. Nottingham Forest's asking price may have decreased since the summer due to Kalimuendo's limited playing time.
Kalimuendo has only played 110 minutes across five appearances this season for Nottingham Forest. His reduced playing time may have impacted the club's asking price. The reported development indicates Frankfurt's continued interest in the player as their preferred striker target.

Source context
After having Arnaud Kalimuendo on loan from Nottingham Forest for the second half of last season, Eintracht Frankfurt explored the possibility of signing the 24-year-old on a permanent basis. However, the €27 million purchase option was beyond the Bundesliga club's financial reach, and negotiations with Nottingham Forest ultimately broke down. Now, Absolut Eintracht reports that Frankfurt are considering a fresh move for Kalimuendo during the January transfer window, with the Frenchman still the club's preferred striker target. According to the report, Eintracht are in a decent position to secure his services this time around, potentially through another loan deal with either an option or an obligation to buy.
