Because the extension also comes with a new exit clause, which allows the central defender to leave Cologne at the end of the season for a fixed amount. According to reports, a sum in the mid seven-digit range is due for this – probably slightly below the market value.

In the past few weeks, Hübers has been linked to other clubs, including Fenerbahce, who are said to be interested. “From our point of view, I can very well imagine that Timo will stay in the long term,” says sporting director Christian Keller optimistically. With the current contract situation, however, the club’s hands would be tied if Hübers were to seek a change of air. Discussions about a new contract that will then also go beyond 2024 are currently not ongoing.
