The 30-year-old stopper of Ghanaian heritage was billed to link up with the German second-tier outfit from the Austrian elite division side in the upcoming transfer window
Swiss-born Ghanaian defender Gregory Wuthrich has seen his January transfer move to German 2. Bundesliga side FC Köln hit a rock as a result of his health complication.
The former BSC Young Boys youth man dreams of plying his trade in the German football competitions are gradually fading out, with a recurring knee injury issues now becoming a bane so far in his football career.
It's understood that the Ghanaian centre-back was in attendance in FC Koln's 3-1 home victory against Nuremberg on December 15 in the 2. Bundesliga contest as he was expected to join them when the transfer window is open next month.
According to a report indicated by Austrian outlet Steirerkrone, a subsidiary of Newspaper Kronen Zeitung, Wuthrich will not be joining the Cologne-based club given his recurring Knee injury that prevented him from moving to FC Augsburg during the summer.
The ex-Grasshoppers defender will now remain with his Austrian Bundesliga outfit SK Sturm Graz until the end of the current campaign.
He remains unfit to represent Ghana on the international stage as he's been cap-tied twice by the Switzerland men's senior national team
