Hellmann draws loyalty line at Frankfurt

Eintracht Frankfurt CEO Axel Hellmann has laid down a hard line ahead of the new season, warning that "lack of loyalty is poison for shared success" in an interview with the FAZ (1). Hellmann and sporting director Markus Krösche are aligning on squad planning, with the club also set to introduce stricter policies targeting problem fans. The comments come during a pre-season where Frankfurt's hierarchy is clearly drawing a sharper boundary between what they will and will not tolerate inside the club.
