Eintracht Frankfurt is toying with tuta sales in the summer

Market value has been stagnating for a long time

Tuta has been under contract with Eintracht Frankfurt for five years and has been on defense for three years. The central defender increased his market value to 15 million euros during this period. But the truth is also: there has been no appreciation since November 2022. There are apparently growing doubts in the Main metropolis that anything will change in the future.

One “PictureAccording to a report, the SGE is considering selling the Brazilian in the summer. The 24-year-old still has a contract until 2026, so he could earn a transfer fee at market value level at the end of the season. Internally, there are doubts that the right-footed player, who cannot consistently correct errors in build-up play and lack of concentration, will take another step forward.

Therefore, Tuta, who came from São Paulo FC’s U20 team in 2020, should make room for players with higher development potential. A potential successor, Aurèle Amenda (20), was signed in January and will join Eintracht in the 2024/25 season.

TM community divided: Frankfurt strong defensively despite or because of Tuta?

There is also discussion in the TM community about Tuta and his current role in the SGE defense. On the one hand, there are supporters like “Adler_09”: “I find it very, very strange to see Tuta as not suitable for the Bundesliga. At the moment Tuta is a regular player and ensures that we have the third best defense in the league despite his occasional dropouts/lack of concentration.” In fact, only Bayer 04 Leverkusen and FC Bayern have conceded fewer goals than Eintracht.

On the other hand, “Tormund” notes: “Isn’t it more the case that we put up a strong defense despite Tuta and not because of him? What would happen defensively if there was a better or more consistent player there? So he is simply a weak point and belongs on the bench next season.”
