Manchester City manager Pep Guardiola has not given McAtee enough playing time, leading to speculation that he will depart the club. Guardiola left McAtee out of the Club World Cup squad, which suggests that he will not be a part of the team in the future.
Journalist Florian Plettenburg has reported that McAtee is in talks with Eintracht Frankfurt about a transfer. The visit is not a medical check-up, and there is no agreement in place yet. Several Bundesliga clubs, including Borussia Dortmund, are also interested in McAtee's services.
Eintracht Frankfurt wants to assess whether a transfer is possible and has several options for the position. The meeting will give all parties a chance to weigh up the possibility of a transfer. A move to the Bundesliga could be appealing to McAtee, as it offers young players a chance to play consistent football in the league and Champions League.
Other players, such as Jude and Jobe Bellingham, have made successful moves to the Bundesliga in the past. A transfer to Eintracht Frankfurt could be an attractive option for McAtee, who is looking for more playing time and opportunities to develop his skills.
