Borussia Mönchengladbach took a hit with Erik ten Hag, but seems to have found an alternative. According to Der Kicker, Die Fohlen are going to pull the purse to separate Adi Hütter from competitor Eintracht Frankfurt.
The 51-year-old Austrian has had past success with Red Bull Salzburg and BSC Young Boys and is now well on his way to lead Eintracht Frankfurt to Champions League football. The same Frankfurt will play an away game against Borussia Mönchengladbach on Saturday, saliently, according to The kicker Hütter’s future employer. The talks between the two parties are said to be at an advanced stage. According to reports, Gladbach will use the escape clause in Hütter’s contract, worth 7.5 million euros.
The current number eight of the Bundesliga has been looking for a successor for Marco Rose, who has joined Borussia Dortmund for some time now. The name of Ajaxtrainer Ten Hag was on the list of The foals. “Gladbach was concrete and has also contacted his management”, Ajax watcher Freek Jansen even announced in Studio Voetbal. “Only: he wasn’t immediately enthusiastic about that, I had the impression.”
