Kaiserslautern's Ache Transfer to Italy Falls Through as Club Makes Last-Minute Moves

Ragnar Ache's planned record transfer to Como collapses, while Kaiserslautern secures Tim Breithaupt on loan and sends Richmond Tachie to Braunschweig.

Ragnar Ache's transfer from Kaiserslautern to Italian Serie A club Como 1907 was canceled due to high financial demands from the player's representatives.
Ache, who has scored 10 goals this season, will remain with Kaiserslautern, a team currently in the 2. Bundesliga promotion race, tied on points with second and third place.
The proposed transfer fee for Ache was reportedly set at €8–10 million, which would have been a record sale for Kaiserslautern.
Kaiserslautern has loaned defensive midfielder Tim Breithaupt from FC Augsburg to bolster their squad for the remainder of the season.
Richmond Tachie, struggling for playing time this season, has been loaned to struggling 2. Bundesliga side Eintracht Braunschweig to gain more match experience.
