Schalke Signs Dena Ebimbe on Permanent Deal After Bundesliga Return

Schalke 04 has officially announced the signing of Cameroonian midfielder Eric Junior Dina Ebimbe from Eintracht Frankfurt on a permanent contract, as part of the team's preparations for their first season back in the Bundesliga. The club confirmed that the player has signed a contract that runs until the summer of 2028, with an option to extend for an additional season.

According to German reports, the transfer fee is around €700,000, with the possibility of rising to approximately €1.3 million through bonuses. Eintracht Frankfurt has retained a percentage of any future sale value of the player.
