Eintracht’s Rasmus Kristensen Reveals Years-Long Depression, Eyes Late-Season Return

The Danish defender says Frankfurt gave him the right setting after moves through Ajax, Salzburg, Roma and Leeds.

Overview

  • Kristensen, who spoke on Eintracht Frankfurt’s club podcast Sunday, said he suffered a “football depression” as well as earlier personal depressions.
  • He said the struggle grew worse over years and reached a point where he thought about quitting the sport.
  • He now says he feels at ease in Frankfurt and describes the club as the right place at the right time.
  • Eintracht turned his 2024 loan from Leeds into a permanent deal with a contract through 2029 after earlier stops at Ajax, RB Salzburg and AS Roma.
  • He is out with a syndesmosis rupture, a ligament injury near the ankle, and hopes to be fit for the final three or four games of the season.
