Ghana international Gideon Mensah is set to commit his future to FC Köln by signing a two-year contract with the Bundesliga club, a source has confirmed to Footy-Africa.
The 27-year-old has already agreed personal terms with the German side, with only the final formalities remaining before the deal is completed.
Mensah will join Köln as a free agent after leaving French Ligue 1 outfit AJ Auxerre at the expiration of his contract.
Gideon Mensah prefers FC Köln move amid growing transfer interest
Footy-Africa previously reported that the Black Stars defender preferred a move to FC Köln despite attracting interest from Schalke 04, Coventry City and Turkish club Çorum FK.
The left-back’s performances at the 2026 FIFA World Cup strengthened his position in the transfer market after he played every minute of Ghana’s campaign, helping the Black Stars reach the Round of 32.
FC Köln are expected to complete the signing in the coming days, with Mensah set to begin a new chapter in the Bundesliga on a deal that will keep him at the club until 2028.
