Hans Koch (date of birth unknown) was a Swiss footballer who played in the 1890s as striker and as midfielder.

Football career

[edit]

FC Basel was founded on 15 November 1893 and Koch joined the club about two years later, during their 1895–96 season. Koch played his first game for the club in the home game on 12 April 1896 as Basel won 3–0 against FC Excelsior Zürich.[1] He also played in the return match which took place two weeks later.

In the following season Koch played in six of the team's seven matches. He stayed with the club for these two seasons and during his time with them, Koch played eight games for Basel without scoring a goal.[note Scorers 1][2]
