The 20 year old has been prolific for his country's U 21 side and is considered to have the potential to develop into a fine striker.&nbsp;<br />

Parma have been keeping tabs on the FC Cologne youngster for a long time and have secured a long term deal after deciding against taking him on loan.<br />

Ishak is however, not under any illusion and is ready to go out on loan this season so as to get some first team football.<br />

Ishak told Fotbolltransfers.com: "It feels terrific.<br />

"I had other options, but finally I decided to go there and see what they had to tell me.<br />

"I had a good talk with sporting director Pietro Leonardi. They have been keeping tabs on me and have got a plan for me.<br />

"As Parma have signed me for four years, they have got confidence in me. I am realistic, I know that players like (Antonio) Cassano and Amauri will play before me.<br />

"Therefore, I have suggested that I might join another club on loan to get playing time. I am open to that."
