Perhaps one of the positions in which the opportunity should be seized the most is on the attack front.. Santos Borré will have it on matchday 25 of the Bundesliga against Stuttgart. The Colombian will start again at Eintracht Frankfurt after five months. For the German championship it will be the first in this 2023.
For the Colombian striker It has not been an easy season, however, despite the few minutes he has scored three. I erased, accustomed to fighting and battling, this season he has had to take advantage of the few minutes and try to show himself.
Although the player’s wish was to leave Eintracht in the winter transfer window, the board of directors and the coaching staff did not want that to happen and the Colombian had to stay to seek more prominence. Kolo Muani took the place of ‘9’, but Borré also knows how to play as a second attacker or thrown a little by band, he did it in River Plate.
Minutes for society Borré – Muani
After a long time and after several games played, Oliver Glasner, DT of Eintracht, would bet on the partnership between Borré and Muani, The two forwards can complement each other well because they have different characteristics, it will be a great test to see if in the next games they can try that formula.
In the Champions League round of 16 will be Santos Borré again only in attack as ‘9′, after the Frenchman was sent off in the first leg against Napoli. Perhaps the German coach wants Borré to arrive competitively strong for this duel in which they are 0-2 down.
Fifth match as a starter in the Bundesliga
This will be the fifth game as a starter in the German championship. He was an initialist against Bayern Munich and Cologne in August, then had a chance against Wolfsburg in September and the last game had been against Bochum in October. Adding the Cup and the Champions League are 9 games starting as a starter.
In the four games played starting as a starter, they lost two, drew one and won another. In none of the games did he score, it’s time to cut the losing streak as a starter. Against Stuttgart he can find spaces as a second striker.
Confidence of the coach and how Borré would play
“Jesper Lindstrom unfortunately injured his ankle and will be out for several weeks. Rafael Santos Borré will replace him, he deserves it very much. I am confident that he will put in a great performance”, highlighted Oliver Glasner. The coach wants to give the attacker confidence, he recently praised his qualities and he accepted that it is unfair not to be able to give him minutes after a great season.
The match against Stuttgart will be this Saturday at 9:30 am (Colombian time). Eintracht Frankfurt is sixth in the standings with 39 points. The team seeks to stay in the European positions and seek the Champions League.
