Robin Koch of Leeds United to Under-go Surgery Today
Leeds United defender Robin Koch will have surgery today following the injury he sustained in their last game against Chelsea. Reports have it that he was already nursing an injury before the match but he played the match with the injury and aggravated it at the end of the day.
The 24-years-old Germany centre-back was substituted after nine minutes of his side’s 3-1 Premier League loss at Stamford Bridge on Saturday. According to a Leeds statement, it was said that Robin Koch had initially injured his knee during his debut against Liverpool in September.
“Unfortunately, following a collision in the Chelsea game, he suffered further damage to the knee.” They also said: “Surgery is required to remedy the problem.”
Koch, who joined Leeds from Freiburg in August almost the same time Raphinha joined them, has started all 11 of his side’s league matches this season. He made his Germany debut last year and has seven caps.
