Timothy Chandler, 36, will meet with manager Adi Hütter and club officials in January to discuss his future at Eintracht Frankfurt. The defender's contract expires at the end of the season, with a potential one-year extension under consideration. Chandler, who has been with the club since 2001 aside from a four-year break, is a veteran figure and has made two substitute appearances at right-back this term due to squad shortages. "We will see what happens. I never say never," the Frankfurt native said in an interview. His influence in the dressing room now outweighs his role on the pitch. Eintracht currently sit 10th in the Bundesliga table with five points. Their next fixture is away at RB Leipzig on October 10th, a direct rival in the mid-table battle. A decision on Chandler's future is expected to shape the club's planning for the coming campaign.
