soccer - Eintracht-Board Hellmann: 'No room for satisfaction'
Eintracht Frankfurt's Board Speaker Axel Hellmann sees a need for improvement in both the men's and women's teams of his club. "There's no room for satisfaction for me in both professional teams. It looks the same from the player, trainer, and leadership perspective," Hellmann stated at a press conference after the training kickoff. "Raising potential is the key task for the upcoming season. We need to work on everything with the men and women," Hellmann added.
Last season, Eintracht finished sixth in the men's league with a points tally of 47, which left some doubts. The club decided to continue working with trainer Dino Toppmöller. "In the discussions, I didn't get the impression that anyone was lacking in self-reflection. That also applies to us in the board," said the 52-year-old Hellmann.
The women finished third in the previous season, behind FC Bayern and VfL Wolfsburg, but earned ten fewer points than in the previous season.
