Sara Agrež said: “1. FC Köln is a great club that I’ve followed for a while. I am really looking forward to wearing the FC kit for the very first time and especially for the game against Werder Bremen in the RheinEnergieSTADION. I like Köln a lot and I am sure that I will feel at home here in the city and at this emotionally charged club.”
