1. FC Köln Secures Loan Deal for Manchester City’s Jahmai Simpson-Pusey

Reports from Kicker and Köln’s Geißblog have confirmed information from Britain’s The Sun regarding the impending transfer of Jahmai Simpson-Pusey, a centre-back from Manchester City, to 1. FC Köln. Sources indicate that negotiations to secure the 20-year-old on loan have been successful. Following the early termination of his loan with Celtic, the England U18 international is expected to arrive in the cathedral city for a medical examination.

Köln, facing a series of injuries in their central defense, has quickly sought reinforcements from England. The club has reportedly arranged for Simpson-Pusey to undergo a medical evaluation this Sunday. Once he passes the medical, he will travel to Spain on Monday to join Köln’s January training camp.

Simpson-Pusey is valued at approximately €5 million, making him a feasible option for the Domstädter, especially if the reports regarding a purchase option are accurate. Thus far, he has struggled to secure a position in Manchester City’s first team, managing only one appearance in the Scottish Premiership during his unsuccessful loan at Celtic.
