Christoph Preuß (born 4 July 1981) is a German football player.

Preuß was born in Gießen, Hesse. Raised up in the Hessian town of Linden, he played for local TSV Großen-Linden, before moving to Eintracht Frankfurt, nicknamed the Eagles. There he became a U17 national and absolved all DFB youth teams up to the under-21 team.

Since 2005-2006 Preuß is playing for the Eagles. In the 2006-2007 campaign he had bad luck, being injured for almost the whole first half of the season. On March 17 he secured the 1-0 victory for the Eagles with a spectacular bicycle kick goal against Bayern Munich which earned Preuß the Goal of the Month award and finished second in the Goal of the Year poll. Since then he was plagued for almost all the time.
