In the summer, Eintracht Frankfurt is threatened with a major change in personnel, especially in midfield, the SBU could get a completely new face. An alleged candidate for the control center has attracted attention in Sweden.
Playmaker Daichi Kamada will definitely leave Eintracht Frankfurt after the season. The Japanese had decided not to extend his expiring contract with Hessen in order to be able to take the next step in his career.
There is still a question mark behind Djibril Sow at the Bundesliga club. Although the 26-year-old Swiss is tied to the reigning Europa League winner until 2024, top clubs such as Arsenal should advertise for his services.
In order to be prepared for the worst case scenario, the Eintracht bosses have already drawn up a list of potential successors for central midfield. A name should also be on it, which in Germany may have only been known to Scandinavia experts so far.
Prominent competition for Eintracht Frankfurt
According to the newspaper “Sportbladet”, the SBU is watching the Swedish shooting star Carl Gustafsson from Kalmar FF. The 23-year-old recently made his debut for the national team and interest in him across Europe has increased significantly since then.
The right-footer, who was trained in Kalmar, is considered a hard-working worker who is a strong runner and always sacrifices himself for the team. Since his current contract expires on December 31, many clubs sense a bargain.
In addition to Eintracht, the Dutch top clubs Ajax Amsterdam and AZ Alkmaar as well as FC Brugge from Belgium and Serie A representatives AC Florence are also considered interested.
It is unclear where Gustafsson himself is headed. However, it is extremely likely that the courted professional will soon dare a new adventure abroad.
