Eintracht Frankfurt central defender Bamba Anderson has signed a contract extension that will keep him at the Bundesliga club until 2018, the Europa League hopefuls said on Monday.
The tall and powerful 27-year-old Brazilian, who has been at Frankfurt since 2011 after arriving in Germany three years earlier, has been an automatic starter for Thomas Schaaf’s team this season.
“I am very happy to renew my contract with Eintracht Frankfurt. We have a good team and I believe we can do very good things here. My family and I feel at home in Frankfurt and I am glad I will stay here for another three years. Thanks for all that made this possible,” said the defender Anderson Bamba.
Frankfurt is ninth in the Bundesliga after a fine first half to the campaign and is in with a chance for a Europa League spot. The Bundesliga resumes on Jan. 30 after the winter break.
