What’s next at Eintracht Frankfurt with coach Dino Toppmöller? Those responsible want to clarify this question in a crisis meeting on Saturday. In Bremen there had been another three goals conceded.
At Eintracht Frankfurt, the future of coach Dino Toppmöller will be decided on Saturday. According to information from hr-sport, there will be a crisis meeting. “Bild” also reported on it.
Accordingly, those responsible want to discuss the current situation – according to the “Bild” report, together with Toppmöller. A decision has not yet been made as to whether the coach will still sit on the bench in the Champions League game at Qarabag Agdam on Wednesday (6.45 p.m.).
Krösche misses the opportunity for confession
Sports director Markus Krösche avoided a commitment to Toppmöller after the 3-3 draw in Bremen on Friday evening. “It’s important that we talk things through now, because we keep making the same mistakes. We can’t carry on like this, we can’t perform like this,” he said after the final whistle. We are Eintracht Frankfurt and we have demands on ourselves about how we want to play football. That wasn’t how we wanted to represent our team and how we wanted to represent Eintracht Frankfurt.”
What was noticeable was that Krösche missed the opportunity to support Toppmöller. “We’re discussing this now. We have to address the issues and see that we never show such performances again,” said Krösche when asked about the coach’s future.
Toppmöller takes responsibility for the current situation
Toppmöller tried to wipe away the unrest immediately after the final whistle. When asked on the ARD microphone whether he still felt the club’s necessary support, Toppmöller responded with a counter question: “Why should I no longer feel it now, five minutes after the game, when I always felt it before?”
In the press conference after the game, he said about the flood of goals conceded (nine in the first three games of 2026): “This is a tiresome topic, and unfortunately these patterns that repeat themselves. And of course I am primarily responsible for this.” Whether Toppmöller remains responsible for the Frankfurt team will become clear over the course of Saturday.
