Eintracht Frankfurt’s sports director Markus Krösche is worried about German football in an international comparison. “The fact that Bayern Munich is in a situation where they have to sell a player because they are inferior to competitors such as Barcelona, Manchester City or Paris St. Germain is a threat to the competitiveness of the Bundesliga. It endangers German football.” , the 42-year-old told the editorial network Germany.
In the past, it was “never” that Bayern had to give up such an important player as Robert Lewandowski. But especially in England there is “a different access to capital,” emphasized Krösche: “We as Eintracht Frankfurt are not competitive in an international comparison. We are competitive because we are an extraordinary club with huge appeal.” It is important to find “another way” in Germany.
