Gideon Mensah Completes Free Transfer to FC Köln
Ghanaian defender Gideon Mensah has officially sealed a move from AJ Auxerre to FC Köln, with the transfer confirmed on Saturday. The 27-year-old has joined the Bundesliga side without a transfer fee.
The left-back's departure from Auxerre marks the end of his tenure with the French club, whom he joined in 2022 from Red Bull Salzburg. His move to Germany sees him embark on a new chapter in his career.
FC Köln have secured the services of the Ghanaian international on a free transfer, a common practice for clubs looking to strengthen their squads without significant financial outlay. Mensah's previous experience includes time at Red Bull Salzburg before his move to France.
This is a savvy free transfer for FC Köln. They've secured an international player with European experience without needing to spend a penny.
