Jaka Čuber Potočnik will never forget Gelsenkirchen. In the town that is home to the fallen giant of German football, Schalke, the young Slovenian played his very first official senior match in his career! At the age of eighteen, he played in the Regionalliga West, which is the fourth tier in Germany in terms of quality. Köln II visited Schalke U23 and defeated them 1-0. It was the first victory for the Cologne club after eight winless matches.
Jaka Čuber Potočnik, whose suspension recently expired due to well-known complications during the transfer from Olimpija to Köln, started the match in the starting eleven of his club. Although he didn’t score, the Slovenian teenager remained on the field until the 67th minute.
Since his transfer to Germany, the Slovenian teenager has played for the youth teams of Köln, scoring an impressive 23 goals in 35 matches. Now, as mentioned, he has taken a step forward in his career, and well-informed sources claim that he could secure a place in Köln’s first team in the next season since the club is not allowed to sign new players this year.
