According to official Frankfurt news, the second team of the club signed Japanese young player Hana Cheng Lindou and Korean young player Kim Yoon-dao.

22-year-old Kim Yundao plays as a central defender and can also play as a right-back. This is the third German team he has joined. He played for the Red and White Elford U19 in 2021. He joined Giesen in February this year and now joins the Frankfurt second team.

19-year-old Lindou Huacheng plays as an offensive midfielder and can also play as a central defender and left winger. He received youth training at the Fukushima Academy of the Japanese Football Association. In January 2024, Lindou Huacheng transferred to Stuttgart Second Team, and won the 2024 Summer Southwest Regional League championship with the team and successfully promoted to the German League C. Now he has transferred to Frankfurt Second Team.

Nino Bernderros, head of U17-U21 lineup planning for Frankfurt: "Kim Yundao's joining will enhance the strength of the central defender of our U21 team. He is particularly good at using his physical advantages to defend people and has excellent speed advantages. Despite his youth, he has accumulated experience in the multinational league. Here he will gain room for improvement in competitive level and personal growth, and achieve advanced career development."

"Flower City is a versatile offensive player who has failed to obtain the expected playing time in the past year and a half. This transfer will provide him with the opportunity to restart his career. We look forward to him realizing his potential here. The club will fully support him in achieving advanced career development."
