Trapp returns: Eintracht Frankfurt hopes for Champions League miracles!

Kevin Trapp, 34-year-old goalkeeper von Eintracht Frankfurt, returns to the goal earlier than planned after an injury-related break. The reason for his return is the knee injury to his team -mate Kaua Santos. Trapp played on Easter Sunday at the 0-0 draw against Augsburg and was positive about his performance and the team.

Trapp had been missing on the shin since March 9th due to a muscle tear. During his absence, Kaua Santos, 22 years old, took over number 1 in goal and established himself there. Although Trapp emphasizes that he no longer has any claims in this position, he praises Santos for his good performance and talent.

for Trapp, the return to the goal is also associated with emotionality. "I feel with Kaua Santos," he said after the game. Santos suffered a cruciate ligament tear in the Europa League output against Tottenham Hotspur, which is a violent setback for the team.

Nevertheless, Trapp sees his team mentally and physically well positioned for the last four game days of the Bundesliga. It is optimistic about the Champions League qualification and classifies the point gain against Augsburg as a potential advantage for the final sprint of the season. Despite his injury problems that have been with him since January, Trapp wants to show his performance as soon as he is fully fit again and continue to help the team.

his trainer, Dino Toppmöller, praised Trapps Parade in the 88th minute against Phillip Tietz and announced that he left Santos in goal until the end of the season. "As a captain, I am responsible and communicate closely with the trainer," said Trapp, who in his previous 378 competitive games for Eintracht Frankfurt made a significant contribution to winning the Europa League title in 2022.
