#PLStories- Leeds United defender Robin Koch admits he expected English food to be ‘worse’ #LUFC

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.

Robin Koch said: “I had a very good time in Freiburg, so I was a bit sad when I left. Nevertheless, it was, of course, exciting to move abroad. I miss the guys from SC Freiburg. And the weather! (But) I was looking forward to the English league. And I was looking forward to finally being able to play with the team. The first game was right away against Liverpool at the Anfield Road soccer stadium in Liverpool. I think I speak English pretty well now. The English lessons at school certainly helped a lot. In general, the food tastes better to me in Germany. But in Leeds, there are one or two very good restaurants. I would have expected it to be worse.”
