Eintracht Frankfurt's goals for the summer has been set, with Markus Krösche tasked with generating a surplus of around €35million in the transfer market.

This is how the club's management is reacting to its financial situation – despite high revenues in recent years, another financial deficit is looming for the Hessen club.

To achieve this goal with Champions League football seeming unlikely, several players in the Frankfurt squad could be sold when the current season ends.

The likes of Hugo Larsson, Nnamdi Collins and Nathaniel Brown are considered possible candidates for sale and are expected to bring in cash if a suitable offer comes in.

Frankfurt sporting director Krösche, knows the upcoming summer transfer window will be challenging but is aware of his task and will try to meet his club's financial targets.

In the past, however, he has proven himself not only a good buyer but also a strong seller, so Krösche is certainly capable of handling this demanding task at Eintracht Frankfurt.
