Cigerci change to Aachen? Energy Cottbus gives a clear answer!

The transfer rumors around Tolcay Cigerci from Energie Cottbus cause excitement in the football world. The 30-year-old playmaker is said to be on Alemannia Aachen's wish list, even if the interest has so far been more silent. Erdal Celik, the TSV squad planner, has confirmed the interest in Cigerci, but an official request from Aachen has not been made, as liga3-online.de

Claus-Dieter Wollitz, the trainer of Energie Cottbus, has made it clear that so far there was no contact from Aachen. "There was no call," said Wollitz. The team seems to concentrate on other obligations and leaves no room for speculation about Cigerci. He has a contract until 2027 without the exit clause and, according to Wollitz, is simply too expensive for a promoted climber after scoring 15 goals and seven assists last season.

The Situation in Cottbus

Although the rumors are circulating to Aachen to Aachen, Cigerci apparently remains entirely with his head with Energie Cottbus. He often commutes between Berlin and Cottbus, shows no signs of exchange ideas and enjoys a high priority in the club, such as tag24.de. Cicerci is aware of its importance and surprised last season as one of the top scorers of the 3rd league. Cooperation with Aachen's trainer Benedetto Muzzicato at Viktoria Berlin could also be important for the player, but so far there are no signs of an agreement.

On the Cottbus website there was also a clear statement on the subject of Cigerci: "The number is not an issue for us," says squad planner Maniyel Nergiz. In addition, the President of the FCE, Sebastian Lemke, said that there has been no offer or contact on the part of Aachen. In view of the contract situation of Cigerci, a change seems rather unlikely.

Problems in the Cottbus squad

While the situation around Cigerci is coming, there are currently other challenges in the Energie Cottbus team. So there are concerns about Can Moustafa, who injured the ankle in a test game against Greifswald FC. Whether and how long it will fail remains uncertain. In addition, Moritz Hannemann, who fights with an adductor injury, and Timmy Thiele, who is in rehabilitation after a knee surgery, are not among the operational players. This would make Moustafa the second failure to Lukas Michelbrink, which makes the location for coach Wollitz even more difficult.

In the coming days, decisions about test players such as Leon Guwara, Justin Butler and Dennis Duah are also pending. According to Wollitz, Justin Butler has the best chance of an obligation, while Guwara is probably not being included in the team.

It remains to be seen whether the rumors about Tolcay Cigerci are more than just a storm in the water glass, and what steps Alemannia Aachen will take in the coming days. The location remains exciting and is followed exactly by many fans, while FussballTransfers.com further observed.
