Perfect! According to BILD information, Cologne’s first last-minute deal is fixed. Shortly before the end of the transfer (Friday, 6 p.m.) the FC Union clearer took Dominique Heintz (30) from Berlin. Heintz, who still had a contract with the Irons until 2024, is committed.
The FC is still reacting to the departure of Nikola Soldo (22), who plays on loan in Kaiserslautern. Cologne plugs the last hole in defense after realizing that Soldo is not enough for the Bundesliga.

Heintz and Cologne – a return that has been announced!
► BILD recently reported that Heintz was always an issue at FC and is in focus. “Heintzi” already played at Geißbockheim from 2015 to 2018, completed 96 games (3 goals) for the club. He never lost his connection to Cologne, visited FC 2019 in the training camp in Donaueschingen. At that time he already announced his big dream: “It would be nice to come back sometime.” Now his dream has come true…

How does Cologne plan with him?
Left footed Heintz is flexible, playing in central defense and in the back four on the left. Cologne’s defense is complete with Jeff Chabot (25), Timo Hübers (27), Luca Kilian (23) and Heintz. However, the newcomer must first come to terms with the fact that he will initially not be able to get out of the substitute role.
However, Heintz will look for his chance. Only defense boss Chabot, who Cologne signed before the season after a strong loan period, is really set at FC.

The young Elias Bakatukanda (19) is now completely behind. The Bundesliga is still too early for him. The bosses found that out during the preparation. The U19 cup winner will therefore continue to train with the pros, but will mainly be used in the U21s in the regional league.
