Contract extended
Captain Kainz remains loyal to relegated Cologne
ÖFB team player Florian Kainz has signed a new contract with 1. FC Köln despite their relegation from the German Bundesliga.
The 31-year-old Cologne captain extended his contract, which originally ran until the end of June 2025. This was announced by Cologne on Thursday and referred to the exit clause that Kainz had not exercised.
"I have experienced many exceptional emotional situations in my time at FC so far - and now unfortunately also a very bitter relegation. But in Cologne we go through thick and thin together. FC has become my club over the past five years and the city has become my second home," explained Kainz, who has been playing for Cologne since January 2019.
The Styrian is currently preparing with the Austrian national team for their first European Championship match against France on Monday.
