A clear victory with the underdog, the playoffs as good as certain – and yet for sports director Fredi Bobic of Eintracht Frankfurt the 5:0 (3:0) at FC Vaduz was not the “best news” of the day.
“The nicest thing is that in England now the transfer window is closed. Now the market is regulating a little,” said Bobic at Nitro.
For the Hessians, who after the success in the first leg of the 3rd qualifying round can plan firmly for the next round, this can have great consequences.
Finally, Frankfurt is still looking for new personnel for the offensive, and they would also like to keep the Croatian runner-up world champion Ante Rebic. “Bobic revealed the facts about Rebic, who had recently been associated with Inter Milan: “We’ll see what happens.”
The Eintracht fans can certainly look forward to a European Cup festival day in the second leg, despite the clear starting position. “The stadium will be full again, so we want to show another great performance,” said Bobic.
