Ankle injury has sidelined Ellyes Skhiri until 2027, with 1.FC Köln confirming to BILD that there are no plans to sign a free agent in the transfer market. The 31-year-old, who joined Köln from Eintracht Frankfurt for €1 million in August, will not return to action until after the New Year. Additionally, strikers Ragnar Ache and Thijs Dallinga are also sidelined long-term due to muscular problems and an ACL tear, respectively.
Despite these personnel losses, Köln does not intend to find reinforcements before the winter break.
