Chief scout Ben Manga extends contract through to 2023

Eintracht Frankfurt and Ben Manga have extended the chief scout’s contract by three years, keeping him at the club until 30 June 2023.

“We’ve always known that we wanted to work together over the long term. The only problem was that Ben spends so much time on the road due to the nature of his job that it was tough to find a time to sit down with him!” said Eintracht board member Fredi Bobic with a grin. “Ben has a good eye for talent, an incredible network and he does his work meticulously. Him staying at Eintracht is very important to us for the future,” he added.

Manga has been chief scout at Eintracht since July 2016 and has played a major role in the success of the club over that period.

“I’m delighted that I’ll be carrying on working with Eintracht,” Manga said. "I enjoy it hugely and I really appreciate the trust that the club has shown in me."
