Then the decision was clear for me: if I'm allowed to do it, I will," he said in a post-match interview atfer Koln's opening day win over Mainz. "I want to commit to this club, and I do, and I also wear this jersey with pride.""
""With a grin, he also admitted there was a personal reason behind the choice: I thought that the combination of black and white-red makes you look a bit slimmer. From what I saw on TV after the game, that didn't really work out so well. Koln now sit third in the Bundesliga behind only Bayern Munich and Eintracht Frankfurt. And with momentum on their side, it's unlikely anyone will mind if their manager keeps rocking the club colours every weekend.""
Lukas Kwasniok has been wearing FC Koln match shirts on the sidelines, choosing the away kit against Mainz and the third kit versus Freiburg. The change replaces the usual suit or tracksuit and is framed as a sign of commitment and pride in the club.

Koln opened the Bundesliga with two wins, including a 4-1 victory over Freiburg, and now sit third behind Bayern Munich and Eintracht Frankfurt, with momentum favoring the team.
