Eintracht Frankfurt begins preseason with Adi Hütter – tougher training, more running Eintracht Frankfurt has started its preseason under new coach Adi Hütter with an intense training program. In the first 20 days, there are 19 training sessions scheduled to bring the team to a new physical level. The goal is to prepare the squad for the Bundesliga, aiming to be among the top teams in terms of running performance.

What is the focus? Adi Hütter is pushing the team with hard work and little rest. According to BILD, there is only one free day during the entire preseason – this Sunday. After that, it’s full speed ahead. The coach wants to prepare his team for the intense pressing and transition football that will be crucial in the coming season.

Why is this important for Eintracht Frankfurt? Sports director Markus Krösche is satisfied with the start. “That’s normal in preseason. You always have many training sessions,” he says. Hütter benefits from the fact that Eintracht Frankfurt is not playing in European competitions this season. “This gives us the time to bring the team to a higher physical level,” the coach explains.

What’s next? After the first training week, Krösche draws a positive conclusion. “My impression is very good. The training sessions were excellent. Adi is happy, the team is happy,” he says. The message is clear: Anyone who wants to earn a starting spot must deliver every day. The next challenge for Eintracht Frankfurt is the home game against RB Leipzig on February 20, 2027, where the team will show whether the hard preseason pays off. Currently, Eintracht Frankfurt is in 8th place in the Bundesliga with 0 points, having scored and conceded 0 goals.
