Bundesliga soccer team 1. FC Köln has signed Swedish striker Sebastian Andersson from league competitor Union Berlin. According to a statement from Cologne, the 29-year-old will sign in the cathedral city until 2023 and will cost six million euros, according to "Kicker" information. A few hours earlier, Cologne's previous goalscorer Jhon Cordoba had switched to Union city rivals Hertha BSC.

Andersson, who is looking forward to an "adventure with this special club", receives the number nine on his shirt. "In the last three years he has played more than 100 games at the highest level and has consistently proven his goal risk," said FC managing director Horst Heldt.

In addition to Andersson, Hertha's playmaker Ondrej Duda is also about to move to the Rhine. The Slovak national player is expected to attend the medical check in Cologne shortly.
