Michael Zetterer will replace Kauã Santos in goal for Eintracht Frankfurt in their upcoming Champions League match against Liverpool.
Following a challenging period in which Santos conceded 18 goals over five games, the decision was made to give him a break. Eintracht coach Dino Toppmöller confirmed Zetterer's starting position at a pre-match press conference.
“We made this decision after several discussions because we felt it might be important for Kauã to take a step back right now. There’s been a lot coming at him recently,” Toppmöller stated, emphasizing the club's advantageous situation with three quality goalkeepers.
“Zetti already played our first few matches and exuded great calmness – he also did very well with the ball. That’s why we made this decision, also in Santos’ best interest,” Toppmöller added.
Zetterer had started the first four games of the season before Santos took over following a long-term injury.
