After putting pen to paper on his Dortmund contract, Kobel commented:
"Borussia Dortmund is one of the biggest and best-known football clubs in the world. A club whose objective is to compete for the league title and the DFB-Pokal, as well as play in the Champions League, every year. It makes me proud to be able to play for BVB. I want to make my contribution to Dortmund’s future successes.
