Filip Kostic was one of Eintracht Frankfurt’s key players in the sensational Europa League win. But after the season, the question arises as to whether he decided at the peak or whether he would stay in Hesse and play with Eintracht in the Champions League next season.
In the past few days (once again) more and more rumors have sprung up, but one track could be hotter than originally thought. Especially since Eintracht Frankfurt does not seem to be averse to actually giving up the winger. The prerequisite is that a club puts 20 million euros on the table. That reports dying “Picture”.
A club that could pay this sum is Juventus Turin. The Italian record champion is the youngest candidate in the race for Eintracht’s top performer. Italian media reports that the ‘old lady’ offers 15 million euros. That is not far removed from the ideas of Frankfurt.
Kostic’s fundamental interest in Serie A is documented. He wanted to move to Italy last summer, but Eintracht put a stop to the plans. After a lot of theater Kostic stayed on the Main. What followed went down in the history books.
That is another reason why it cannot be ruled out that the Serb will stay in Frankfurt. The Bundesliga side will only prevent Kostic from leaving the club on a free transfer in 2023 when his contract expires. Which is why the Hessians are trying to extend the 29-year-old’s contract by several years.
“It’s nice for me at Eintracht. They have offered me an extension of the partnership.”

Kostic himself confirmed that there was an offer from the SBU. In a media round of the Serbian national team, he said: “It’s nice for me at Eintracht, with them I’ve experienced the greatest successes of my career. I am still negotiating with the management, they have offered me an extension of the cooperation. We’ll see when the time comes. We’ll make the best decision.”
Eintracht has not yet received an offer from a club
Entry into the premier class can help Eintracht, because that, like winning the Europa League, flushes a lot of money into the coffers. Those responsible have recently tried several times not to let expectations get too high. The corona pandemic and the resulting ghost games had also opened up huge gaps in financial planning in Frankfurt. Why, despite the recent euphoria, top performers could be sold with suitable offers.
A firm decision does not seem to be in the offing at the moment. According to information from “Sport1” Despite the interest of several clubs, Eintracht has not yet received a concrete offer.
