Facing several absences in attack, FC Cologne could turn to the free-agent market to strengthen their attacking options. Among the players reportedly under consideration is Togolese international Ihlas Bebou, according to German outlet Express.
At 32, the striker brings extensive experience in German football and is particularly familiar with the Bundesliga. His profile could make him an attractive option for Cologne as the club looks to address its growing injury concerns in attack.
A Potential Move Still Under Consideration
For now, however, the possibility remains speculative. FC Cologne have reportedly made no final decision on whether to bring in an emergency signing.
The club’s attacking shortages could nevertheless prompt officials to explore several options in the coming days, with the free-agent market still offering potential reinforcements.
Karlsruhe Also Monitoring Bebou
According to Africafoot, Cologne are not the only German club interested in the Togolese forward. Karlsruhe SC are also reportedly monitoring Bebou’s situation.
Transfermarkt currently estimates the striker’s market value at €600,000.
It remains to be seen whether Cologne will turn their reported interest into a concrete approach or pursue another option to strengthen their attack.
Bebou’s future could therefore become clearer in the coming weeks, with several German clubs potentially interested in securing his services.
