Robin Koch believes his three-year stint at Leeds United has ensured he is ready to take the next step in his career in the Bundesliga. The defender completed his return to Germany last week after securing a season-long loan deal with Europa Conference League outfit Eintracht Frankfurt.
With his contract at Elland Road due to expire at the end of the season, the switch ensures he has played his last game for Leeds, with his time at the club unfortunately ending in relegation. Koch, who has been joined in Germany by his Leeds teammate Brenden Aaronson following his switch to Union Berlin, had plenty of reported interest over the summer months with Manchester United and Tottenham Hotspur being amongst those linked.
However, the 26-year-old insists the option of joining Frankfurt appealed to him most and over the next year he’ll be keen to establish himself as a leader at the club and win back his place with the national team set up.
