SGE — Financial Stability Score
Frankfurt ist die effizienteste Transfermaschine der Liga — niedrigste PK-Quote (37,4%), positive Transferbilanz, exzellentes Scouting. Aber: Das EK-Polster (51,7 Mio, Quote nur 13,7%) ist gefährlich dünn. Ein oder zwei schlechte Saisons ohne Transfer-Hits könnten Frankfurt schnell in die Bredouille bringen. Die EL-Trophäe 2022 und die Marmoush-Story zeigen das Potenzial — die EK-Quote zeigt die Fragilität.
