What's happening?
Eintracht Frankfurt's young players are training in Grassau. Niko Ilicevic, Malik Pimpong, and Keita Kosugi are the talents looking to break through. Trainer Adi Hütter emphasizes the chances for every player in the squad.
Who is Keita Kosugi?
Kosugi is a Japanese left-back who's been a key player in the team recently. He has a brutal energy and knows how to defend. Hütter has already called him a good backup.
Who is Niko Ilicevic?
Niko Ilicevic is a 15-year-old talent who can't yet participate in test matches. He's already playing against world champions and national players. Ilicevic has excellent technique and a good understanding of the game. Hütter has already described him as a diamond in the rough.
Who is Elias Baum?
Elias Baum is a right-back who was courted by several interested parties before the last transfer window. However, he's since proven himself as a valuable option on the right wing. Baum looks solid in the Bayern League and as a hard worker.
What's next for Eintracht Frankfurt?
Eintracht Frankfurt is currently 8th in the Bundesliga with 44 points from 34 games. They're 45 points behind the leaders Bayern Munich. The next match is against RB Leipzig on February 20, 2027, at home. The team is hoping to break through in the second half of the season.
