Eintracht Frankfurt board member Axel Hellmann announces a flourishing “boom” in the Bundesliga. The main reason for this is the traditional German clubs.
Happy about traditional clubs: According to “Bild”, Axel Hellman, spokesman for the board of Eintracht Frankfurt, is happy about the success of a number of traditional clubs – for example about the promotion of Schalke 04 and Werder Bremen. A “boom” in the Bundesliga is triggered by their large reach. That’s good for German football.
Short, compact, clear
“Power when there is a fan base”: The reason for the revitalization of the Bundesliga, in addition to the performance, is above all the supporters of the respective clubs, says Hellmann. The 50-year-old had already realized on the “final stretch of last season” “what force will be unleashed here after the pandemic, when the fan base is there”.
Hellmann’s initial concerns: Only a year ago, Hellmann expressed his fear of the Bundesliga being “dwarfed” by smaller clubs becoming less attractive.
