FC Koln poised to land Max Meyer
FC Koln are showing strong interest in Max Meyer.
According to the football transfer rumours in British and German media, FC Koln are poised to land Crystal Palace midfielder Max Meyer.
The Germany international joined Crystal Palace from Schalke 04 on a free transfer in August 2018. His contract expires in the summer of 2021.
In 56 appearances for Crystal Palace, Meyer has managed to score 2 goals, and create 3 goals for his teammates.
Max Meyer has also left his mark at the international stage after netting one goal in 4 senior appearances for the Germany national team.
The midfielder has just 6 months remaining on his contract and Palace may consider a deal in this transfer window to avoid losing him for nothing next summer.
Markus Gisdol wants to sign a new midfielder and Meyer is one of the names at the top of his wishlist. He is a firm fan of Crystal Palace midfielder and FC Koln could make a move for the player if the financial aspect makes sense.
FC Koln are in the market for just a handful of statement signings who can improve the first-team.
There is no doubt that Max Meyer will take Koln’s midfield to a different level.
According to the report, “Crystal Palace midfielder Max Meyer is being linked with a return home to Germany. Fussball Transfers says the former Schalke star is a target FC Koln, while VfL Wolfsburg are also interested. The 25 year-old has fallen off the first team map at Palace this season, having just appeared in the Carabao Cup. Meyer is now inside the final six months of his current contract. He joined Palace two years ago from Schalke on a contract worth €10m-a-year.”
