AC Milan is casting a wide net in its search for a new sporting director, and one name near the top of the list carries serious weight. Markus Krösche, the man running football operations at Eintracht Frankfurt, is reportedly under consideration for the role.
Who is Markus Krösche and why does Milan want him
Krösche has held the sporting director title at Eintracht Frankfurt since April 2021. His most headline-grabbing move was facilitating the sale of Omar Marmoush to Manchester City for a reported €75 million.
Before Frankfurt, Krösche cut his teeth at RB Leipzig and SC Paderborn. Krösche’s contract with Frankfurt runs until 2028, meaning prying him away would likely require negotiation with the Bundesliga club.
