Jakub Kaminski's transfer to Benfica is complete, as confirmed by 1.FC Köln's official website this evening.
The Portuguese record champions have signed the versatile and speedy midfielder to a contract until 2031.
Furthermore, Benfica will pay Köln a fixed transfer fee of €20million Kaminski, resulting in a hefty profit for the Cathedral City club.
The reason for Kaminski's imminent departure is due to a release clause in his contract which the Portuguese side activated.
Köln signed the 31-cap Polish international permanently from VfL Wolfsburg last summer for €5.5million after a year-long loan.
In the most recent Bundesliga season, the 24-year-old has scored seven goals and provided five assists for the Billygoats.
