The left-footed defender arrives from Ecuadorian club SD Aucas, signing a contract valid until 2028. The idea is for the 1.84-metre 18-year-old, who represents Ecuador at U20 level, to be developed step by step.

Timmo Hardung, Eintracht Frankfurt sporting director: “In addition to focusing on the short- and medium-term development of the squad, we always want to keep an eye on the long-term prospects too. Davis is a very talented player, and we have no doubts that he will make the ambitious leap from South America to Europe. We want to build him up step by step and help him fulfil his potential in the Bundesliga. In order for him to gain regular match practice, we may initially consider a loan for him.”
