Earlier on Wednesday, reports were circulating that linked Chelsea and United States center back, Matt Miazga, with a loan move to Bundesliga side Eintracht Frankfurt.
Soon after the news hit, Frankfurt’s sporting director, Fredi Bobic, came out and denied that the club had interest in the New Jersey native.
According to Frankfurter Neue Presse, Bobic stated in a press conference that Miazga was “not an option” for them at this time.
Could he just be playing a hardball negotiating tactic at this point? Who knows with clubs these days. Some are truthful in their denials and some are just bitter that information has leaked out into the media.
