Eintracht Frankfurt's Timothy Chandler: MLS not currently an option

Timothy Chandler is considering a move to MLS, but not in the near future, the Eintracht Frankfurt wing-back has said.

Entering the final season of his deal with Frankfurt with doubts over his future at the Bundesliga club, Chandler has been one of the key players for Eintracht as they aim to defy the odds and qualify for a European competition next term.

They sit third after 18 match days, and lead a breakaway five-team group currently competing for two Champions League and two Europe League slots.

Chandler, deployed as wing-back by coach Niko Kovac, who plays with a three-man defense, won himself a new contract through to 2020 at Frankfurt with a string of excellent performances, and currently is not considering leaving his hometown club.
