Isak Johannesson shocks Fortuna: move to FC Cologne officially!
1. FC Köln has signed an exciting new signing: Isak Johannesson is moving from Fortuna Düsseldorf to the cathedral city. The news was officially announced on Sunday and fans are excited about the 22-year-old Iceland international's Bundesliga debut next season. However, the move also caused a stir, especially among the Fortuna Düsseldorf supporters, who did not want to give up their player lightly, after all Cologne is a direct rival in the league.
In an emotional Instagram post, Johannesson spoke about his departure from Düsseldorf and emphasized his passion for the Bundesliga. “It was my big dream to play in this league,” said the newcomer. He thanked his former club for the support and the memories from the last two years. Despite the exciting new challenge, the young player faces headwinds in the form of hate comments. This even led to his comment function being temporarily blocked.
A promising talent
Sports director Thomas Kessler from 1. FC Köln is sure that Johannesson is ready for the Bundesliga. “He has developed well and will help us in central midfield with his versatility and ball skills,” said Kessler about the newcomer, who has signed a contract until June 30, 2030. Johannesson himself is particularly looking forward to the atmosphere in the RheinEnergieSTADION and to bringing his qualities to the team.
Isak Johannesson was born in Sutton Coldfield and has had a distinguished career. After making his debut in the Icelandic second division at the age of 15, he moved to IFK Norrköping in 2019, where he played 44 games in the Allsvenskan and collected an impressive 13 assists on five goals. This was followed by two years at FC København, where he won the Danish Superliga twice before being loaned out to Fortuna Düsseldorf in 2023. There he scored 15 goals and prepared 11 goals in 61 games in the 2nd Bundesliga.
