Eichhorn made 19 appearances across all competitions for the 2.Bundesliga side, popping up with two goals from defensive midfield.
According to journalist Florian Plettenberg, Premier League giants Liverpool continue to ‘push hard’ to ensure he ends up at Anfield.
It’s understood that Bayern Munich have pulled out of the race, but Man City and Borussia Dortmund remain interested.
With Eichhorn unable to officially join Liverpool until he’s 18, Bayer Leverkusen are being touted as a potential loan destination.
