Last summer, Leeds United allowed Robin Koch to join Eintracht Frankfurt on a loan deal even though his contract at Elland Road lasts until 2024.
The centre-back has been a vital figure for the German club this season, managing three goals and two assists from 23 matches. This also includes 14 league appearances and his side have conceded only 16 goals from those matches.
Bild state the Leeds owned player has been a ‘real hit’ at Eintracht Frankfurt and this was made clear in a short time.
Koch’s contract situation at Leeds allows the Bundesliga side or any other club to start talks with him over a deal after this season.
It’s claimed Eintracht Frankfurt are aiming to sign the Leeds man on a free transfer next summer and to get this deal over the line, their bosses will sit down for talks with him in the ‘coming days’. They are planning to offer a three-year deal to Germany international.
Bild state that anything apart from a clear commitment from the 27-year-old to Eintracht Frankfurt ‘would be a surprise’.
Indeed, these reports are a surprise on their own, because it had been assumed Frankfurt had him secured beyond the summer.
