_“Jahmai is a talented player who, despite his young age, already has experience at the highest level,”_ said sporting director Thomas Kessler**.**
_“He enjoyed his footballing education at one of the world’s best clubs and is excellent on the ball. With his signing, we have secured an option at the centre-back position and the necessary depth at that position. Jahmai brings a high level of motivation and a real desire to the club, which will have a positive influence on the competition for places.”_
Simpson-Pusey added: _“The move to Köln is a fresh start for me, and one I’m really looking forward to._
_“As I looked into FC and the history around the club, I wanted to get started right away. Now I’m looking forward to getting to know my new teammates – and Hennes, when I get back to Köln. I want to play as much as possible here and help FC to reach their goals this season.”_
