🚨 Eintracht Frankfurt sack Albert Riera after turbulent months

Eintracht Frankfurt announced on Sunday night the end of Albert Riera’s spell as first-team coach.

Riera had conflicts with several players and, in the final stretch of the season, was even booed by the fans. Results did not go his way either.

Out of Europe, the Riera project can now definitively be described as a failure.

“After intense talks, we jointly reached the decision to end the collaboration with immediate effect. Albert Riera took charge of the team at a difficult time and put himself at Eintracht Frankfurt’s service with great dedication and commitment,” sporting director Markus Krösche explained.

Among the candidates being mentioned to replace the Spaniard are Matthias Jaissle and Adi Hütter.
