Jakobs sees no basis for another term of the current Vice President Carsten Wettich, who competes together with Wilke Strom and Tugba Tekkal on Saturday. “It is very surprising that he stands for election again. He came to the board as a substitute, then shaped things on the board, including CAS and sporty results.” In his view, speaking “little for a continuation of the office”.

Three days after the first defeat of the season, the professionals of the 1st FC Köln resumed training on Tuesday morning. Coach Lukas Kwasniok had given his players two days off after the performance, but not the result in 1: 3 against RB Leipzig. At the start of the preparation for the next home game against VfB Stuttgart, the 44-year-old had to do without his top striker Marius Bülter (two goals).
The attacker had got a painful blow on his thigh in Leipzig and stayed in the cabin at the second half. On Tuesday, the 32-year-old was finally missing due to “individual control”, as the club announced. The long -term injuries Luca Kilian (cruciate ligament rupture), Youssoupha Niang and Rav van den Berg (both shoulder injuries) are also missing.

The 1. FC Köln would have liked to hire Raphael Obermair from SC Paderborn in the past transfer period. The player would also like to switch to the Bundesliga promoted team and had already agreed with the Cologne. In the end, however, those responsible for the SCP pushed a stop to the transfer.
“I think everyone can understand that I am disappointed,” said the midfielder for the first time after the break. “Maybe I am also angry in a certain way,” added Obermair after the 2-0 away win of the Paderborner at Hertha BSC. The 29-year-old was in contact with FC for a long time. This uncertainty would have mentally burdened him. “But it doesn’t help. I keep going to get the chance again,” said Obermair, who would be free in the summer of 2026.
