Eintracht’s Krösche Sets Winter Talks on Mario Götze’s Future

The club intends to weigh his first‑half form before deciding on a contract extension.

Overview

  • Sporting director Markus Krösche said he and Götze will sit down during the winter break to discuss the midfielder’s future.
  • Götze’s current deal runs until summer 2026, and both sides describe the timeline as relaxed with no pressure to rush a decision.
  • The 33-year-old’s minutes had dipped earlier this season, but he played the full 90 in the 0–0 Champions League draw at Napoli.
  • Krösche said he believes Götze feels comfortable in Frankfurt and emphasized the club’s appreciation for his experience and quality.
  • Transfer planning shapes the timing, with six contracts reportedly expiring at season’s end and Krösche highlighting his broader strategy, including €451m in sales and the high-priced Omar Marmoush move to Manchester City.
