Eintracht Frankfurt finished eighth in the Bundesliga last season, their lowest finish since 2021/22. How would you summarise how their season panned out?
Qualifying for Europe is the minimum expectation for Eintracht Frankfurt every year. This allows them to attract better signings with the promise of continental football.
When they changed head coach in early 2026, there was still optimism that they would reach Europe, and they turned to former Spain international Albert Riera in an attempt to shake things up.
Unfortunately, the biggest shake-up was in the dressing room, where Riera's personality clashed with the squad, and everyone involved decided it was best to change managers again at the end of the season.
After his exit, the former Liverpool midfielder gave an interview in which he compared his relationship with Eintracht to that of "the gorgeous Angelina Jolie and the charming Brad Pitt. Both are wonderful, but they just don't fit together."
