VfB Stuttgart at 1. FC Köln: These professionals were already active for both clubs – VfB Stuttgart
After three Bundesliga games without a win, the pressure on VfB Stuttgart is increasing. Striker Chris Führich meets his former club on Sunday (3.30 p.m.), but other players have also played for both clubs.
1. FC Köln is undoubtedly a special opponent for VfB Stuttgart. With a 2-1 win, coach Pellegrino Matarazzo’s side made it perfect to stay up in the league on the final day of the past season. Historically, however, Cologne have the edge: In 92 Bundesliga duels, the “Effzeh” won 36 times, VfB managed 31 victories. The points were shared 25 times.
In the past, some professionals have already put on both the jersey with the red breast ring and the one with the billy goat. Including a world champion from 2014 and VfB striker Chris Führich. Most recently, Nikolas Nartey (2019) and Darko Churlinov (2020), who recently migrated to FC Burnley, moved from the cathedral metropolis to Stuttgart.
In our picture gallery we show 19 professionals who were active for both clubs.
