Having picked up just two points in the last six league matches, pressure is mounting on 1. FC Köln head coach Lukas Kwasniok.

According to Bild, Kwasniok has been handed a one-game ultimatum ahead of next week’s derby against Borussia Mönchengladbach.

If the 44-year-old fails to guide the Billy Goats to victory over their rivals, he's expected to be sacked, the German tabloid reports.

Köln sit just one point above the relegation zone following Saturday’s 1–1 draw with Hamburger SV.

Assistant coach René Wagner is reportedly being considered as a potential replacement.
