The Cologne team also have to convince the Danish club. The billy goats are said to have made a first offer of over 2 million euros. However, the Superliga club demands 3 million euros plus bonuses. Basically, Bröndby is open to a sale because Sebulonen’s contract expires in one year. A transfer -free departure should be prevented.
As a serious competitor for FC, a club from Italy was most recently mentioned with the US Sassuolo. Recently it was even said in reports that Sebulonsen were already facing a series-A promoted team before moving. Instead, a move to Cologne seems to have moved closer. Sassuolos offering, which was also rejected, was higher at EUR 2.5 million. With sports director Benjamin Schmedes, the cathedral towns of Bröndby have a German negotiating partner.
Sebulonsen in mind: 1. FC Köln is urgently looking for full -back
Sebulonsen switched from the Norwegian homeland from Viking FK to Bröndby in the summer of 2022 for 1.2 million euros. In his third year, the former U21 international was finally able to assert himself completely, in 38 missions he contributed a goal and seven templates. Its market value jumped from 750,000 to EUR 2.5 million last season.
So far, the Cologne residents have only two regular full -back in the squad: Learst Paçarada (30) for the left and Jusuf Gazibegovic (25) for the right side. Therefore, reinforcements for both outer lanes, which with Paçarada and Gazibegovic can compete in the starting eleven right away.
