On Monday, the supervisory board of Eintracht Frankfurt is expected to approve Mario Götze’s move. The return of the 2014 World Cup hero to Germany has several reasons.

Götze would like to defy his critics: Mario Götze’s move to Eintracht Frankfurt is imminent. According to “Sport1”, the 30-year-old would like to “show his critics in Germany again” and “still has a score to settle with the Bundesliga”. Even a return to the national team could be a possibility if he performs well.

Short, compact, clear

Family lives in Düsseldorf: But the proximity to his wife and two-year-old son, who currently live in Düsseldorf, is also an important reason for Götze to return to Germany. In addition, the midfielder at Frankfurt with an annual salary of around four million euros has risen to the ranks of the top earners.

Interest also came from Miami: In addition to Eintracht, his former coach from PSV Eindhoven, Roger Schmidt, also wanted to bring him to Benfica Lisbon. The American club Inter Miami was also interested in Götze.
