Ben Manga, Director of Professional Football Eintracht Frankfurt: “Fabio Blanco Gómez was tempted by a few top European sides but had the good sense to decide to come to Frankfurt. His technical ability is extraordinary, the way he plays football and his anticipation in game situations, just outstanding. However, a young, rising talent still needs the opportunity to develop and flourish. Fabio will have that opportunity with us.”
Fabio Blanco Gómez said, “When I spoke to Ben Manga, he really convinced me and my family that the next stage of my development was in Frankfurt. In recent years Frankfurt has progressed a lot and have a lot of matches to play in the coming season since they qualified for international competition. I would like to continue my development in Frankfurt and take this opportunity to develop personally while far away from home. I’m really looking forward to my time in Germany at Eintracht Frankfurt.”
Axel Hellman, Spokesperson for Eintracht Frankfurt Fussball AG, said, “Fabio Blanco Gómez’s commitment shows the growing reputation of Eintracht Frankfurt. With this commitment, Ben Manga has demonstrated his eye for top-quality talent and his connections within top European football. We will continue along the same path.”
