Leeds United defender Robin Koch has admitted he expected English food to be 'worse' as he reflects on his time in West Yorkshire so far. The 25-year-old joined the Whites in summer 2020 from SC Freiburg and played an important role in the Whites' ninth-place finish last term.
His switch to Elland Road was the first time he had signed for a club outside of Germany, having spend the early stages of his career at SV Eintracht Trier 05, FC Kaiserslautern and then Freiburg. This meant there was always going to be a period of time where Koch needed to adapt to life in England.
With the Covid-19 pandemic making social interaction tough during the first year of his Leeds career, Koch has had to adapt differently from what he may have hoped it would've been like. A new culture and language are amongst the many things Koch has had to adapt to and it is safe to say he is getting along with that just fine.
