In the Bundesliga, the striker of the club Michael Thurkas, after a successful previous season, moved to the Frankfurt club for 1.5 million euros.

The 30-year-old forward, born in Frankfurt, who scored 12 goals in 32 matches in the 2005/06 German championship, signed a three-year contract with "Eintracht," who plays in the UEFA Cup.

"Moving to Frankfurt and finally playing for 'Eintracht' is a dream come true," said Thurkas.

"Eintracht" will start the 2006/07 season on Saturday with a match against Schalke in Gelsenkirchen, after recently crushing "Mainz," who scored 18 goals in the last two seasons, in a friendly match against Liverpool at home..
