FC Köln are making Jakub Kaminski's stay permanent. The club's sporting director, Thomas Kessler, confirmed to Sky Germany that they will trigger the purchase option for the Polish winger, currently on loan from VfL Wolfsburg.

This decisive move comes after a standout season where Kaminski transformed from a Wolfsburg fringe player into a key figure for Köln. His relentless energy and direct attacking play have made him a fan favorite, contributing 7 goals and 5 assists to the cause.

"It applies regardless of the league and we will exercise the purchase option," Kessler stated after a recent 1-1 draw with St. Pauli. "He has shown again today how important he is." The reported fee to secure his services is set at €5.5 million.

For Köln supporters, this news signals a strong commitment to building a competitive squad. Securing a dynamic, hard-working talent like Kaminski provides a crucial foundation for the club's future, whether they are battling for promotion or solidifying their Bundesliga status.
