Hoffenheim boss confirms signing of Köln striker

Tim Lemperle is set to leave FC Köln to move to TSG Hoffenheim on a free transfer.

TSG Hoffenheim’s managing director for sport, Andreas Schicker, confirmed on Monday that the 23-year-old forward will join Die Kraichgauer as a free agent when his contract expires this summer.

Lemperle played an important role in Köln’s promotion campaign, scoring 10 goals and providing six assists in the 2. Bundesliga last season.

Hoffenheim will be hoping his addition provides a much-needed boost to their attack after a disappointing 2024/25 campaign.

Hoffenheim will also be reinforced by the return of Mohammed Damar and Fisnik Asllani, who both spent last season on loan at Elversberg in the second division.
