NEWLY promoted German Bundesliga side,Eintracht Franfurt has expressed serious interest in ex-Nigeria U17 star Macauley Chrisantus,his agent has said. Chrisantus’s agent Adam Mohammed told MTNFootball.com they have received an enquiry from Frankfurt,which has fought their way back to the German Bundesliga after they were relegated last season. “We have an interest from Eintracht Frankfurt already”, Mohammed told MTNFootball.com. “We will look at all the possibilities in the summer.” The 21-year-old striker’s contract at German Bundesliga outfit Hamburger SV will run out in the summer of 2013. Eintracht Franfurt is the club who gave Austin ‘Jay Jay’ Okocha his big break in Europe and is currently top of the Bundesliga 2 standings on 68 points with two matches to spare. Eintracht and second-placed SpVgg Greuther Furth, who are also on 68 points, are battling for the overall championship in the lower league after they both guaranteed themselves places in the German top flight next season. Macauley has scored eight goals for Eintracht’s city rivals FSV Frankfurt in the Bundesliga 2 on loan from Hamburg.
