Frankfurt on alert: Batshuayi about to be eliminated by Christmas!
Eintracht from Frankfurt currently has some personnel concerns that not only affect the Bundesliga, but also their preparation for the Champions League. Michy Batshuayi is out with a foot injury and was substituted at half-time in the recent 6-0 defeat against RB Leipzig. Coach Dino Toppmöller announced this at a press conference and informed that Batshuayi suffered a blow to his foot. An MRI is due at short notice, and unfortunately Toppmöller sees no glimmer of hope: “He won’t be able to play until Christmas,” said the coach.
But it's not just Batshuayi that is causing problems for Frankfurt. National striker Jonathan Burkardt is also out of action due to a muscle injury. This means a big challenge for Eintracht, as the Champions League game against FC Barcelona is next Tuesday at 9:00 p.m. The pressure is growing because the team wants to prepare as best as possible for this important match.
Further failures put a strain on Eintracht
In addition to the injuries mentioned, Toppmöller will also have to do without Ansgar Knauff for a short time, who is unavailable due to a cold. This accumulation of injuries could have a negative impact on Eintracht's performance, especially at a crucial moment of the season.
The injury situation is not new for the Bundesliga. According to fussballthemen.com, numerous teams are struggling with injury problems this season. The situation at BVB, which was badly affected by injuries, while FC Bayern remained consistently in form, needed to be particularly highlighted. The entire situation of the injured players is comprehensively documented in a large injury table at the end of the year, which illustrates the enormous strain on the teams.
When asked how Eintracht can fare despite these adversities, those responsible are relying on close cooperation and finding the right formation. The coming days will show whether Eintracht can overcome all challenges. The fans are hoping for an effective and quick comeback from Batshuayi and Co. to inspire the football world again.
The upcoming games, especially against a solid opponent like Barcelona, require the best from each player. Eintracht could use a psychological advantage if they can pull themselves together as a team during the injury period.
We'll be curious to see how injury-plagued Eintracht fares and whether Batshuayi could return before Christmas Eve.
