Transfer negotiations are ongoing between Cologne and Como 1907 over Stefan Posch, the highly-rated defender - with multiple reliable sources confirming the story. The clubs are believed to be some way apart on valuation, but dialogue is open as they look to strike a deal ahead of the run-in. Unconfirmed reports suggest both sides are hopeful of finding a resolution in the coming days - with other interested clubs said to be circling. Cologne remain optimistic, but the deal is not without hurdles. Augsburg, Mainz and Como 1907 continue to monitor developments and could yet re-enter the race if negotiations stall or valuation gaps remain unresolved. Across the season 25/26, Cologne have let in 29 goals in 17 (1.71 per game), roughly in line with the Bundesliga average. Stefan Posch would be expected to give them some extra stability and depth for the tougher stretches of the season. Como 1907 have also been linked with Bernardo Silva while Cologne are reportedly monitoring Dan Neill and Eren Dinkci. Want to see how the story develops?
