Eintracht Frankfurt II is the reserve team of Eintracht Frankfurt.Formerly known as Eintracht Frankfurt Amateure (Amateurs) the team plays as U23 (Under 23) to emphasize the character of the team as a link between youth academy and pro team. Manager of the team is Alexander Schur.
The traditional home ground is the Riederwaldstadion but for safety purposes the team is forced to play at Bornheimer Hang. The ground was actually renovated for local rival FSV Frankfurt but since their unexpected promotion to the 2. Bundesliga and the stricter home ground requirements FSV used to play at Eintracht's actual stadium while the SGE reserves play at their home. Since 2009-10 both teams, FSV and Eintracht U23 play at Bornheimer Hang.
The squad is frequently supported by Ultras Frankfurt, especially when playing derby matches against Darmstadt and Kassel, both home and away.
Current squad
- As of 28 October 2013
Note: There are no fixed jersey numbers in the squad
Note: Flags indicate national team as has been defined under FIFA eligibility rules. Players may hold more than one non-FIFA nationality.
