FC sign Philipp Pentke

1. FC Köln have signed Philipp Pentke as number two behind Marvin Schwäbe. The 38-year-old goalkeeper signed a one-year deal with FC.

FC Managing Director Christian Keller said: “In the last three weeks of training, Philipp has shown that he fits and fulfils our profile. He has proven his qualities as a number one and as a reliable number two in the Bundesliga throughout his career. He has highlighted, once more, with his strong performances in training, that he is still at the required level at 38. We are getting a really good guy with a lot of experience, who fits into our team on a personal level and integrated himself well from the very start.”

Philipp Pentke said: “I am really happy to have signed for a club so big as 1. FC Köln and to be part of the FC family in the coming season. I want to help out as best I can and ensure that the team has a successful season.”

Philipp Pentke was born on 1st May 1985 in Freiberg.

After spending time with FC Augsburg (2007-08) and Energie Cottbus (2008-09), he joined Chemnitzer FC, where he helped them to earn promotion to 3. Liga in 2011.
