However, the 25-year-old now looks likely to stay after all, with Kicker reporting that an extension of his contract, which expires in the summer, is "now a very realistic option again".
Mittelstädt has spent his entire career at Hertha BSC, making a total of 147 appearances with four goals and 19 assists to his name.
He has been limited to just seven games this season, but could have a bigger role to play in the future, as it's been announced that Marvin Plattenhardt, his competitor for the left-back position, will leave the club this summer.
