Overview

  • Union Berlin has lodged an official bid of around €5 million with Galatasaray for 26-year-old left-back Derrick Köhn, who remains under contract until 2026.
  • Reports vary on the sell-on clause included in the package, citing either a 10% or 20% entitlement for Galatasaray.
  • The former German U19 international developed in the HSV and Bayern youth systems and was loaned to Werder Bremen for the 2024/25 season, making 30 appearances.
  • Union plans to deploy Köhn as a specialist left-back to fill the void created by Tom Rothe’s move to central defense and limited depth on the flank.
  • Agreement hinges on final paperwork and Köhn’s decision, with the clubs yet to make an official announcement.
