Córdoba transfer to TSG Hoffenheim failed – Breitenreiter is looking for a striker

Despite the broad agreement

Former Bundesliga striker Jhon Córdoba (29) will not move from FK Krasnodar to TSG Hoffenheim. Again “table football” reported, a transfer of the attacker to the Kraichgau failed after concrete talks. Accordingly, both sides could not agree on salary, although all other conditions had been clarified. A loan was in the room, which would have been possible due to the special FIFA regulation as a result of the Russian war of aggression.

Córdoba switched from Hertha BSC to Krasnodar last year for 20 million euros, for which he has played 20 games with seven goals and four assists to date. On Sunday he scored for the first time of the new season in the 2-0 win over FK Orenburg. Córdoba is under contract with Krasnodar until 2025. But it is said that he is being pulled out of Russia. Borussia Dortmund was last listed as an interested party in the TM rumor mill, but decided to sign Anthony Modeste (34) after Sébastien Haller (28) dropped out. Córdoba was then brought into play at his former club 1. FC Köln, which in turn could be looking for a successor to Modeste. “If we come to the conclusion that we want to sign someone, we are certainly able to do it – whoever. Maybe nobody,” commented sports director Christian Keller on the rumours.

While Dortmund and Cologne seem to be well positioned in the attack center, the assessment at TSG is different. “Kicker” recently reported that coach André Breitenreiter was still looking for a “real nine” with physical presence. Although the coach can fall back on Ihlas Bebou (28), Georginio Rutter (20), Andrej Kramaric (31), Munas Dabbur (30) and Talent Fisnik Asllani (20) for the front position, they are all different types of players than, for example, Córdoba. The question now is whether TSG will continue their search for an alternative. At Hoffenheim, the names Junior Adamu (21; Salzburg), Wilfried Gnonto (18; Zurich) and Leonardo Vonic (19; Nuremberg) have also been traded in recent weeks and months.
