Ebenezer Annan, 23, has agreed personal terms with Rapid and is expected in Bucharest for his medical. Rapid's chief Marius Bilasco confirmed the transfer is on track, with a buy option around €1 million. The loan includes a purchase clause believed to be close to 1 million euros, though Bilasco noted the figure would exceed 500,000 euros. Annan, not in new Saint-Etienne coach Ian Cathro's plans, leaves after joining from Red Star Belgrade in August 2025. Malmo FF's initial interest did not block the move, as the Swedish club pursued another target.
