FC Kaiserslautern Chief Executive Officer, Thomas Hengen has said they don't want to give up on retaining the services of Ghanaian winger Aaron Opoku beyond the summer of 2025.

The 25-year-old former Hamburger SV man is currently a subject of transfer target of MLS side St. Louis City SC, with a report from Sky suggesting the two parties have already agreed personal terms ahead of a possible deal in the near future.

That notwithstanding, those in charge of the Fritz-Walter-Stadion have made their intention clear of keeping their winger albeit the strong interest being expressed in his services by the aforementioned suitors as he is unwilling to extend his deal when it expires in the summer window.

''We don't want to weaken the squad either, so we don't have to give up the player,'' the club's chief is quoted as saying by German sports magazine Kicker 

Opoku has so far netted 2 and assisted 3 in 7 league game appearances for FC Kaiserslautern in this current 2. Bundesliga football season.

The Hamburg-born winger is still eligible to play for Ghana at the international stage despite featuring for the Germany U-19 &  U-20 national youth teams.
