Juventus are being linked with a move for Union Berlin defender Derrick Köhn in a deal which could hinge on his contract situation in Germany.
The 27-year-old left-back, who holds both Ghanaian and German nationality, is the subject of transfer speculation suggesting a switch from the Bundesliga to Serie A, with the latest rumour dated 1 April 2026 and the probability of a move currently listed as unclear (“?”) on Transfermarkt.
Köhn’s contract length at Union Berlin has not been disclosed, and with no expiry date publicly available there is scope for further talk that he could become a free agent in the near future, a factor that would significantly shape any negotiations. His current market value is reported at €4.00m, a figure that would make him a relatively low-cost option for Juventus if a fee is required, or an attractive free transfer if his deal in Berlin runs down or is allowed to expire.
Born in Hamburg on 4 February 1999, Köhn came through the youth ranks at Hamburger SV before joining Bayern Munich II in 2017. He later moved to Willem II in the Netherlands’ Eredivisie in 2020, then returned to Germany with Hannover 96 in 2022, impressing sufficiently to earn a transfer to Turkish giants Galatasaray in February 2024. A subsequent loan spell with Werder Bremen in 2024-25 preceded his move to Union Berlin in August 2025.
The left-footed defender has seen his market value rise from €150,000 as a teenager at Bayern Munich II to a peak of €6m during spells with Galatasaray and Werder Bremen, before settling at €4m following his arrival at Union. Detailed recent match statistics, including specific opponents, dates and scorelines, are not listed in the available data.
If Juventus decide to formalise their interest, a move to Turin would offer Köhn the chance to add Serie A to a career that has already taken in the Bundesliga, 2. Bundesliga, Eredivisie and Turkish Süper Lig, and could mark a pivotal next step in his development and reputation at European level.
