Japan's Inui leaves Frankfurt for Spain

Japanese international midfielder Takashi Inui has requested to leave Bundesliga club Eintracht Frankfurt for Spanish club Eibar, the German club announced on Wednesday.

Eintracht, currently 12th in the Bundesliga after two games, said in a statement they had agreed to the 27-year-old's request to cut short his contract which runs until June 2016.

"I've had three wonderful seasons here. My time at Eintracht will always remain a wonderful memory," said Inui.

Inui arrived in Germany in 2011 from J League side Cerezo Osaka, playing first with Bochum before joining Frankfurt the following season.

He played 75 matches with the club, scoring seven goals.
