Köln prepare to send striker Imad Rondic to Karlsruhe | OneFootball

Marlon Irlbacher reports that 1. FC Köln striker Imad Rondic is on the verge of moving to Karlsruher SC in the 2. Bundesliga. Köln have been seeking a taker for the forward they acquired just last January for quite some time. Rondic was among the strikers on Köln’s squad deemed inadequate to compete at a Bundesliga level.

Karlsruhe themselves have had a rather productive summer transfer window with respect to procuring attacking additions. The Fächerstädter have secured the services of two Bundesliga prospects (Borussia Mönchengladbach’s Shio Fukuda and Werder Bremen’s Leon Opitz) on loan. Rondic will likely be sold outright for a negligible fee.

Köln have already offloaded strikers Steffen Tigges (Paderborn) and Florian Dietz (Regensburg). A deal to send Sargis Adamyan to Osnabrück fell through due to the Armenian international declining to take a pay cut. Köln wish to move one more player off their 30-man-squad before signing Union SG wide-man Alessio Castro-Montes today.

It was revealed today that die Geißböcke do wish to surprisingly retain the services of Rondic’s fellow Bosnian international Denis Huseinbasic. The 24-year-old versatile midfielder started yesterday against Freiburg and delivered a solid performance.
