The 1. FC Köln has to do without Tim Lemperle again. After a muscle fiber tear in December and a strain in mid -January, Lemperle is now once again failing due to muscular problems in the same thigh. There is no structural injury, but the FC has to protect the attacker for a few days.
Therefore, the 22-year-old will be missing against Eintracht Braunschweig next weekend to be fit again in the quarter-finals of the DFB Cup at Bayer 04 Leverkusen. In the final phase of the game against SV Elversberg (1-0), Lemperle felt another stab in the thigh.
Did Jonas Urbig celebrate a victory of 1. FC Köln one last time before the south curve? As “Sky” reports, Bavaria’s sports director Max Eberl and FC Managing Director Christian Keller in Düsseldorf are said to have affected concrete negotiations in Düsseldorf last week.
The “picture” also reports on an upcoming agreement. According to this, the second division club should receive around seven million euros immediately and hope for three more million euros for bonuses. Bayern immediately want to sign Urbig as number two behind Manuel Neuer. The deal could take place at the beginning of the week.
Before the game against SV Elversberg, the 1st FC Köln slowly but surely run out of the players. After Luca Waldschmidt had recently joined the long -term injured professionals due to illness, Denis Huseinbasic will also be missing on Saturday in the first home game of the new year.
The midfielder had contracted a calf bruise against Hamburger SV, but was able to train again on Wednesday. During the final training on Friday morning, however, the Bosnian international was missing and will not be available against Elversberg. For him, the U21 player Georg Strauch is likely to go to the squad for the first time this season. In addition, Tim Lemperle is available again after surviving muscular problems.
The 1st FC Köln has to do without Luca Waldschmidt in the home game against SV Elversberg on Saturday. “Luca continues to keep the bed, he will not be available to us,” FC coach Gerhard Struber confirmed on Thursday that the attacker for the coming game. For this, the Austrian hopes that another striker will be fit with Tim Lemperle.
“It looks good and very positive,” said Struber in terms of his most successful striker with eight goals. Lemperle had recently failed due to muscular symptoms, but is supposed to get back into team training on Thursday. Meanwhile, Luca Kilian, Jacob Christensen (both cruciate ligament rupture), Mathias Olesen (back complaints), Mark Uth (muscle injury) and Julian Pauli (concussion) will be missing against Elversberg.
After the 1st FC Köln had also rejected the second offer of FC Bayern Munich for Jonas Urbig in the past few days, the goalkeeper initially took part in the team training of the goats on Wednesday. However, the 21-year-old had to stop the almost two-hour unit at the Franz-Kremer Stadium prematurely. Urbig left the lawn after just an hour, before he had got a ball on his head during training with goalkeeper Peter Greiber and teammate Matthias Köbbing.
The serious problems of the warned talent is probably not to be expected, according to which it is not an impact on a continued likely winter transfer to Bayern. Should the change take place this week, FC is facing a goalkeeper bottleneck for the home game against Elversberg. Philipp Pentke, currently number three behind Marvin Schwäbe and Urbig, was missing in training due to illness on Wednesday.
