FC Köln's Sport boss Thomas Kessler plans to make the loan deals for Jakub Kaminski, Tom Krauß, Jahmai Simpson-Pusey, Felipe Chavez, and Kristoffer Lund permanent, on the condition that the club avoids relegation. Kessler has already secured the necessary purchase options for all the players. The total cost for the entire package is estimated to be around 20 million, and the club urgently needs the funds from a potential future sale of Said El Mala to finance these signings.
