The Bundesliga match against Werder Bremen on January 21 will mark the Germans’ return to competition. Koln is currently in 13th place in the league after the first half of the season, with four wins, five draws, and six losses to their credit.
Next summer, FC Köln might try to re-sign Anthony Modeste.
When his contract with Borussia Dortmund expires in the summer, Anthony Modeste might leave on a free transfer and rejoin FC Köln. Anthony Modeste merely moved from FC Köln to Borussia Dortmund in August. However, it’s been reported that the Billy Goats are already internally debating whether to bring him back to the team next summer. This is according to BILD, who also say that the veteran striker’s return to his old team is not entirely improbable.
Following the cancer diagnosis of Sebastien Haller, Borussia Dortmund acquired Modeste from FC Köln on a one-year contract in the previous summer. However, the Frenchman has had trouble getting going in Dortmund. In 20 appearances for the Black and Yellows in all competitions so far, he has only been successful in scoring twice. Additionally, Youssoufa Moukoko has taken his place as the team’s first-choice striker.
It is quite doubtful that Borussia Dortmund will want to keep Modeste on board after the current campaign is over. And going back to his old team might give him the chance to keep competing at the highest level. In Anthony Modeste’s absence, FC Köln has had difficulty scoring goals this season. And it goes without saying that the 34-year-old and FC Köln head coach Steffen Baumgart get along well. Before joining Borussia Dortmund, Modeste scored 79 goals in 157 appearances across two stints with FC Köln. He is now recovering from the groin surgery he received last month.
