Hütter will be departing Deutsche Bank Park for Gladbach this summer, and Terzic is leading the race to become his successor, as per the report.
"According to our information, it's very likely that he will be the new Eintracht Frankfurt coach," Sky transfer market expert Marc Behrenbeck is quoted as saying.
"From what we hear, the whole thing could be finalized in the next few days. They are in final talks, but there is no agreement yet."
However, amid the speculation about Terzic's future, Borussia Dortmund CEO Hans-Joachim Watzke recently announced that the 38-year-old has extended his contract at Signal Iduna Park.
Should Terzic want to take a head coaching job at a different club, Dortmund would be prepared to sit down with him again. But – as of now at least – the plan remains that Terzic will serve as an assistant for Marco Rose next season.
"We're expecting that Marco Rose and Edin Terzic will work together, and we're looking forward to that. If someone makes Edin a top offer, then we'll talk. However, that's not our desired scenario," Watzke told Funke Mediengruppe.
According to Sky, Frankfurt have identified Young Boys coach Gerardo Seaone as an alternative to Terzic. Wolfsburg coach Oliver Glasner and former Schalke star Raul Gonzalez, on the other hand, are apparently no longer in the running for the job.
