Eintracht Frankfurt director Markus Krosche has admitted Leeds United defender Robin Koch is of interest this summer. Koch has been linked to a host of clubs following the Whites’ relegation from the Premier League and as it stands it appears highly unlikely that he will be staying at Elland Road beyond the closure of the transfer window.
Manchester United, Tottenham Hotspur and Newcastle United have been rumoured to be interested in the Germany international, but there have also been reports that Koch would prefer a move back to the Bundesliga. Bayer Leverkusen and Frankfurt are two of the clubs mentioned and in the last 24 hours there have been suggestions of a deal in place between Koch and the latter.
With that in mind, it comes as little surprise to hear Krosche talking about the Leeds defender. While the director didn’t give much away, the mention of Koch might just be a telling sign.
