Gotze set to sign for Eintracht Frankfurt

After two years playing in the Dutch league for PSV Eindhoven, the 30-year-old is set to undergo a medical in Frankfurt, according to German media reports. Eintracht are said to be ready to meet the buy-out clause, said to be four million euros, in Gotze's contract at Eindhoven, who finished runners-up to Ajax in the Dutch league last season.

Gotze sat out the start of pre-season training with Eindhoven on Monday as the club said the attacking midfielder was busy "finalising a transfer". It was Gotze's stunning volley as a replacement against Argentina in the 2014 World Cup final which sealed victory for Germany in Brazil.

Gotze's arrival would boost the attack of Frankfurt, who were winners by beating Rangers in the Europa League final last month and finished 11th in Germany's top flight.
