""We are overjoyed to convince Felipe of our sporting perspective. He has a very interesting profile, has developed greatly at Bayern and has the highest footballing capabilities," Kessler said, as captured by @iMiaSanMia_GER. "With qualities going forward we have added more variety to our midfield. We are convinced that we can give him the right conditions to bring out the best in him and continue his development. The goal is to lead him, step by step, to the level of the Bundesliga and give him the basis to establish himself on that level on a consistent basis.""
"Bayern will hope Köln will do this as well, given they have the ability to bring the player back. If the Peruvian international develops well, there exists the possibility that he can yet break into the Bayern first team."
Felipe Chávez moved on loan from Bayern Munich to newly promoted FC Köln during the January 2026 transfer window after notable first-team appearances for Bayern. FC Köln values his overall qualities and believes in his ability to reach Bundesliga level. The club views Chávez as having a very interesting profile, strong development at Bayern and high footballing capabilities, with forward qualities that add variety to Köln’s midfield. Köln intends to provide the right conditions and step-by-step guidance to continue his development and help him establish himself consistently at Bundesliga level. Bayern retains the option to bring him back if his progress warrants first-team inclusion.
