editOn 6 July 2018, Red Bull Salzburg announced that they had signed Köhn from RB Leipzig, their unofficial sister club, on a four-year contract. Since FC Liefering is Salzburg's feeder team, he was eligible to play for both clubs as a cooperation player.[7] During the 2019–20 pre-season friendly, Köhn played in a football match between Salzburg and Chelsea in the Red Bull Arena, replacing Cican Stankovic at half-time. He conceded two goals from Pedro and Michy Batshuayi as the match ended in a 5–3 loss.[8][9] He featured for Liefering twelve times.[10]

In the 2022–23 season, he won his second domestic league title in a row and third in total, and was voted as "Best Goalkeeper of the Season".[15]
Monaco
editOn 15 July 2023, Köhn joined Ligue 1 club Monaco by signing a 5-year contract.[16] Later that year, on 11 November, he saved his first penalty at the club in the 100th minute of stoppage time to maintain an away goalless draw against Le Havre.[17]
