The player and his advisor Manfred Batz confirmed this RevierSport. “Marvin has a great sense of space and is characterized by a special acceleration, is considered to be technically gifted, is good in one-on-ones and has excellent shooting technique. He is a guy who works a lot on his own. He is to say that the road to Cologne’s Fortuna is a love affair, although he alone had offers from five western regional lists and from the regional leagues north, south-west and north-east,” reveals Batz.
Mika, who has a contract with Fortuna until the summer of 2025, is looking forward to the new challenge. He says: “I’m looking forward to a great team, great fans and that we can play football successfully in the southern part of the city. I will bring my high level of commitment, my unconditional will to win and bring as many goals as possible to the team.”
