As a philosopher of the game, I’ve watched Koval’s quiet exit unfold—not with noise, but with the weight of a last-second save echoing in empty stadiums. At 25, his contract expires in 2027, and Eintracht’s quiet overtures feel like halftime poetry. He’s played 15 matches—5 in the Bundesliga, 6 in the Champions League—and each stop was a meditation on legacy, not just stats. This isn’t transfer speculation. It’s soul-deep movement.
