Shortly before the start of the DFB Cup season, 1. FC Köln probably have their seventh newcomer on the line! Is everything happening very quickly at Effzeh now?
Cologne – 1. FC Köln does not have much time to find a fast offensive player on the transfer market. Now there is said to have been an agreement behind the scenes at Geißbockheim.

However, managing director Christian Keller (44) did not leak exactly which player it was. The Cologne Express had previously reported.
“It’s no secret that we still want to do something in attack. And I’m confident that it will work,” said the 44-year-old.
Not least because of the injury worries for Linton Maina (24) in preparation, Effzeh longs for a flexible offensive solution for the wings.

For two Cologne kickers, however, the chapter in the Rhineland is likely to be almost over again. Nikola Soldo (22) and Kristian Pedersen (29) are expected to leave last year’s eleventh this summer.
On the defensive, one sees oneself well positioned – even after the painful departure of horse lung and World Cup driver Ellyes Skhiri (28) to Eintracht Frankfurt.
Just a few weeks ago, coach Steffen Baumgart (51) announced no less a goal for the season than attacking Europe.

With Luca Waldschmidt (27), Leart Paqarada (28), Jacob Christensen (22) and Rasmus Carstensen (22), the billy goats have brought enormous experience to the team to compensate for the influence of former captain Jonas Hector (33).
In just five days, Effzeh will be a lot smarter. From 8.45 p.m., Steffen Baumgart’s squad will be fighting for a place in the 2nd round of the DFB Cup at the Bremen Bridge.
