Reports suggest United scouts are closely monitoring Brown’s situation, but stiff competition from Real Madrid, Köln, and Atalanta is only intensifying the fight for the young defender.

Barcelona is also said to be keeping a close eye on Brown.

Eintracht are convinced Brown will leave in the summer and have already set a price tag of €60–70 million, though a winter sale is off the table.

This season, Nathaniel has played 18 matches for Eintracht, scoring once and providing two assists. His current contract runs until 2030, and Transfermarkt values him at €30 million.
