Eintracht Frankfurt Cracks Down on Black-Market Sales Before Galatasaray Visit

Club executive Philipp Reschke warns that roughly 90 percent of resale listings are fake.

Overview

  • Eintracht has engaged a specialist law firm to scan platforms, issue abmahnungen, cancel listed tickets, and pursue season-ticket revocation or membership expulsion for offenders.
  • UEFA’s guest allocation remains at about 3,000 tickets, and the club is restricting applications to members who were already registered by May.
  • Secondary listings have advertised seats for up to ten times the original price, exposing buyers to both gouging and fraud.
  • Club officials say they are confident the fixture will remain a home match as enforcement and monitoring continue in the lead-up to September 18.
  • A sizable Galatasaray fan base in Germany is fueling intense demand and attempts to obtain seats through unofficial channels.
