  • Croatia winger Ante Rebic has decided to extend his stay at Eintracht Frankfurt until the end of the 2021-22 season.

    The 24-year-old had been linked with a move to a number of top European clubs, including Eintracht’s Bundesliga rivals Bayern Munich and Premier League giants Manchester United.

    But Rebic, a stand-out performer during Croatia’s run to the World Cup final, has instead committed to the club he joined permanently only this summer after two seasons on loan from Fiorentina.

    Eintracht sports director Fredi Bobic told the club’s official website: “Ante is certainly one of the most positive phenomena of the World Cup, and we do not have to hide the fact that it awakens greed.

    “It speaks for Eintracht Frankfurt that we have managed to keep such a strong player, who can certainly be described as a whizz kid.

    “Ante was wooed by some of the top clubs and had one or two better overseas offerings, but staying with us shows that he has the eagle in his heart and that we are on the right path with our plans.”
