Only details on Kostić change

Eintracht Frankfurt loses its most important offensive player with Filip Kostić.

Coach Oliver Glasner responded to the change topic with sarcasm: "I substituted him so that he was in top shape for the season opener in Italy".

Kehrer has been playing for Paris since 2018. In the French Ligue 1 he only made 85 appearances in four years.

The 25-year-old was previously active at Schalke 04.
