A first press conference as an Eagle for new Eintracht defender Christopher Lenz.

Christopher Lenz on...

…his early decision to join Eintracht: “It was important for me to come to a decision early and I also didn’t want to keep Union on tenterhooks for too long. I came to an agreement very quickly with Eintracht and to be honest, they didn’t need to do much convincing because the club has an aura that speaks for itself.”

…his first impressions of the new coach: “He’s brought his own playing philosophy with him to Frankfurt and wants to pass that on to us directly. So he ended up interrupting training today more often than normal to make sure he got his ideas across.”

You can’t believe how much I’m looking forward to Europa League evenings with Eintracht.

…looking forward to the Europa League: “I’m really excited that we’re involved in European competition. Two years ago, I would never have even dreamt it because I’d just been promoted with Union. You can’t believe how much I’m looking forward to Europa League evenings with Eintracht.”

…his aims for the coming season: “My aim is to have as good a season as last year, but with Eintracht. The team has some incredible quality to it and my goal is to get as much playing time as possible.”
