The defender is heading into his fourth campaign with the Eagles, and has so far made 127 competitive outings for the club. 

“For me there was never any doubt about wanting to captain our team again this season,” said Koch. “It’s a role that makes me incredibly proud and, above all, brings me great joy. At the same time, I’m aware of the responsibility that comes with wearing the captain’s armband at Eintracht Frankfurt. I’ll continue to give my all every day to live up to the position, to lead as a role model on and off the pitch, to achieve our aims with the whole team and our fans, and to deliver the kind of season we all want. Ultimately, we need the whole club if we want to achieve something special, and I’m confident we can do that.”
