Ellyes Skhiri (26) is not a guy who talks about the bush. In the summer, the Tunisian declared quite openly that he would leave Cologne if there was a suitable offer. The transfer failed. Skhiri continued to train professionally and promised performance. And deliver now …
Model professional and one-on-one machine: Cologne is not allowed to sell this Skhiri!
There are plenty of reasons: week after week he delivers his performance, runs an average of 12.5 km per game and tirelessly straddles the field (67 percent won duels). Skhiri is always fair – only made six fouls. On top of that, he is dangerous …
Cologne’s midfield racer scored three goals in the last two games. Skhiri made his last goal against Fürth (3: 1) after a sprint from penalty area to penalty area. In the 89th minute!
FC defense chief Rafael Czichos (30): “Ellyes is the greatest professional I know!”

And there lies the problem: Skhiri’s top performances are causing a stir in the league and abroad. His busy advisor Fali Ramadani would have loved to sell the player in the summer. According to BILD information, FC FC was toying with a possible winter change for Skhiris for economic reasons. In the meantime, it should be clear to all those responsible for the club that it is better to stay away from such plans!
If Cologne (currently 6th place) wants to play a successful season, the club must prevent a winter transfer at all costs! Rather even extend it with Skhiri.
As Cologne’s model professional recently said in an interview with BILD: “My situation will definitely be clear next summer, because my contract will expire in 2023 – you either extend it or switch.”
BILD says: FC cannot sell this Skhiri!
