Eintracht Frankfurt sporting director Markus Krosche admits they could've signed Michael Olise for "€8-9m".
Olise left Crystal Palace for Bayern Munich last summer for a fee rising to €60m.

And Krosche revealed yesterday: "We looked into him three years ago.
"He had an exit clause at the time. I think it was eight or nine million. But we didn't have the money to pay that at the time. He's a very, very good player."
Indeed, in his first six competitive matches for Bayern, Olise has been involved in eight goals.
