The term that the current interruption of the game is an international break is a euphemistic term that has long since become established in Bundesliga parlance among those involved. There can be no talk of idleness while the national players are on standby. Especially since the seasonal business is soon entering its final stretch. Eintracht, who have been in sixth place since December, are also preparing for the final spurt to maintain their position in the table because it guarantees a continuation of the European trips, which are particularly valued by the team and fans, in late summer.
For this purpose, training is carried out in the fitness room on the Stadtwald campus and Dino Toppmöller’s coaching team structures the work in the units on the grass pitches at the arena, in which he has to do without nine players who have gone on international missions. Questions about the future of Eintracht, which celebrated its ceremony on Tuesday evening with invited guests in the Alte Oper on the occasion of the club’s 125th anniversary, are also being explored on a different level in these groundbreaking days: Markus Krösche and the club are, according to FAZ information, in the decisive phase their discussions about an early extension of the contract with the sports director.
