Eintracht Frankfurt: CFO Oliver Frankenbach resigns
CFO resigns after just over a year
Oliver Frankenbach, CFO of Eintracht Frankfurt, has resigned from his position after just over a year. The club announced Frankenbach's resignation on Tuesday, July 26, 2023, and said that he will leave the club on July 31, 2023.
Frankenbach joined Eintracht Frankfurt in June 2022 from the German Football League (DFL), where he was responsible for finance and controlling. He was seen as a key figure in the club's financial turnaround, which saw Eintracht Frankfurt post a profit in the 2021/22 financial year for the first time in several years.
However, Frankenbach's departure comes at a time when Eintracht Frankfurt is facing financial challenges. The club is currently in the process of building a new stadium, which is expected to cost over €100 million. The club is also facing increased competition from other clubs in the Bundesliga, which is making it more difficult to attract and retain top players.
No concrete reasons for resignation
Eintracht Frankfurt did not give any concrete reasons for Frankenbach's resignation. However, it is believed that he may have been unhappy with the club's financial situation. It is also possible that he may have had disagreements with the club's management team.
Frankenbach's departure is a blow to Eintracht Frankfurt. He was a key figure in the club's financial turnaround, and his departure will leave a void in the club's management team. It remains to be seen who will replace Frankenbach as CFO, and what impact his departure will have on the club's financial situation.
