Derrick Köhn, the 26-year-old left-back currently playing for Union Berlin, may be on the move to Galatasaray in the Turkish Süper Lig.
Köhn, who holds dual German and Ghanaian nationality, has been a solid presence in Bundesliga, contributing to Union Berlin’s current standing at 13th place with 40 points.
This potential transfer comes amidst the summer transfer window, which is set to close on August 31. With the clock ticking, Galatasaray is keen to secure Köhn’s services in the face of stiff competition.
Köhn’s market value stands at €5.00m, which translates roughly to 37.2 million DKK. While the exact figure Galatasaray is willing to pay remains undisclosed, it’s expected to be a few million less than the player’s market value.
The possible departure of Köhn from Union Berlin may provide more opportunities for Benedict Hollerbach, the 24-year-old German player who has already made a significant impact this season. Hollerbach, standing 181 cm tall and weighing 81 kg, has played 34 matches this season, scoring 9 goals and providing 1 assist.
While the potential transfer of Köhn is yet to be confirmed, it would undoubtedly shake up the dynamics of both Union Berlin and Galatasaray, potentially influencing their performance in the upcoming season.
