The Spanish radio station 'Tribuna Deportiva' reports that 1. FC Köln will not exercise the two million euros purchase option in the loan contract for Cenk Özkacar. However, according to the Cologne 'Express', this does not mean the transfer has failed. The 'Express' also reports that discussions are ongoing and the club generally wants to keep Cenk Özkacar, but does not want to pay the high salary he receives in Valencia. According to 'Sky', the Bundesliga club has decided against the signing for sporting reasons, as those responsible are looking for reinforcements with a more technically skilled profile for the position in the summer.

The German club Colonia is convinced by Cenk Ozkacar's performances. According to Kicker, the club is ready to activate the buyout clause to keep the Turkish player in Germany. The player's agreement includes a buyout clause of approximately two million euros.

According to Bild, Cenk Özkacar, a Turkish player on loan at 1. FC Köln from FC Valencia, is working to secure his future with the club. He has become a key player in recent weeks, and a goal from him would offer another reason for Sportboss Thomas Kessler to use the purchase option at the season's end. Özkacar has five remaining games to secure a new contract with Köln.

Cenk Özkaçar, who is on loan at 1. FC Köln from FC Valencia, has indicated a desire to stay with the German club permanently. The defender stated that he and his wife are very happy in the city and at the club. The loan deal reportedly includes a purchase option of two million euros. It is suggested that the likelihood of a permanent transfer would increase if the team avoids relegation. Özkaçar clarified that his current focus is on the team's tasks on the field, and that discussions about his future will occur later.
