Eintracht Frankfurt
Eintracht Frankfurt is a Bundesliga club controlled by its 160,000-member association; it earns about €390 million a year, the largest part from selling players it has developed, plus TV money, sponsors and a 60,100-seat stadium.
Selling players is its largest revenue line.
The club calls transfers strategically important, so player sales bring in more than media rights.
