The defender is anticipated to leave Leeds this summer, and clubs in the Bundesliga and Premier League are keen. Manchester United and Tottenham are two teams that have spoken with Robin Koch's agency.
According to 90min, Manchester United and Tottenham are two of the teams that have spoken with the agents of Leeds United center-back Robin Koch.
Koch joined Leeds in the summer of 2020, however he is anticipated to leave the club this summer after they were demoted to the Championship. A number of Premier League clubs are interested in signing Koch.
In fact, sources have verified to 90 minutes Man Utd and Tottenham have both had conversations with Koch's representation, and it is also believed that Brentford, Newcastle, and Nottingham Forest have had preliminary discussions.
It's unclear, though, whether any of those teams would pursue their interest since the majority are still creating their shortlists and looking into backup plans in case they don't land their top targets.
For instance, Manchester United has been focused on signing Kim Min-jae from Napoli but faces fierce competition from Bayern Munich and may be forced to go elsewhere.
Koch is expected to leave Leeds this summer, but Leeds insiders have disputed rumors that the 26-year-old has a clause in his contract that permits him to leave for free if the Yorkshire club is demoted.
Koch reportedly prefers to stay in the Premier League this summer, but he has offers to return to the Bundesliga, even though German teams would find it difficult to match the financial resources of England's top division.
Following their relegation, Leeds is preparing for a number of departures, including Koch and the American duo Tyler Adams and Brenden Aaronson.
Adams, like Koch, is very interested in the Premier League and is reported to have a number of powerful people as admirers. Additionally interested are Manchester United, Newcastle, Tottenham, and Liverpool.
