  • Krösche’s contract through 2028 is said to include a release clause allowing a January departure for around €8 million.
  • Eintracht Frankfurt chairman Axel Hellmann publicly warned fans not to treat every transfer rumor as fact and expressed confidence in Krösche’s long-term stay.
  • Under Krösche’s leadership, Frankfurt has generated over €250 million from high-profile player sales without sacrificing on-field competitiveness.
