Born on the 1st of January in the year 2000 (now aged 25), Nicolas Kühn is a German forward, primarily taking up his position as a right winger for Como. Standing at 5ft 9in (1.76m) tall and weighing in at 10st 12lb (69kg), he confidently sports the number 19 jersey. Current market estimations place his value in the range of €17.00m (£14.6m), as per sources from Transfermarkt.
In his early years, specifically July 2015, Kühn started his football journey with RB Leipzig II in Germany's Oberliga. Come January of 2018, he transferred to Jong Ajax in the Eerste Divisie, the Netherlands, for a reported price tag of around £1.8m. His inaugural season at Jong Ajax was marked with five first-team outings in league matches. The following season, he participated in 21 games and netted the ball twice. The 2019 - 2020 season saw Kühn make 17 appearances on the first team and score three goals.
The footballer kept his journey's momentum in January 2020 by switching sides from Jong Ajax, moving to Bayern München II in Germany for an undisclosed fee. His tenure there saw him achieve a tally of 16 appearances and two goals in his opening season and 21 appearances with four goals in the next.
However, in July 2021, Kühn temporarily bid adieu to Bayern München II for a loan stint at Erzgebirge Aue in the 3. Liga in Germany. The season ended with him participating in 27 matches and contributing three goals. In July 2022, Kühn found himself on another transfer, this time from Bayern München II to Rapid Vienna in Austria's Bundesliga, for an approximate value of £450k. There, he made 20 appearances and scored three goals in his first season and 16 appearances with two goals in his second.
This offside journeyman made another switch in January 2024, from Rapid Vienna to the green fields of Celtic in the Premiership in Scotland, for around £3m, where his scoring propensity increased over the two seasons he stayed. At Celtic, he made 14 appearances with two goals in the first season and 32 appearances with a significant increase of 13 goals in the second season.
An impressive spell at Celtic made waves in the football world and led to Kühn's transfer to Como in Italy's Serie A in July 2025, for a steep price of around £17m. Currently, in the 2025 - 2026 season at Como, Kühn has already made five appearances in league matches.
A career graced with consistent performances and repeated success, Nicholas Kühn's growth as a forward has been notable and he is definitely one to watch in top-flight football.
