Kotysch joined 1. FC Kaiserslautern in 2000 as a youth player having moved from regional team SV Gauersheim. In the 2006–07 season, he played for the reserve team of FCK. He made such a good impression in the second string that former manager Wolfgang Wolf gave him his first team debut. In his first season, he only played eight times for the first team but over time had a more important role to play and thus was rewarded with his first professional contract.
Kotysch is a youth international footballer for Germany.[2]
