Schalke 04 Sporting Director Horst Heldt has revealed the club’s transfer plans for this summer and admitted that there is still activity left before the season starts next month. He stated that the club is looking to sign a few
more players in order to strengthen the squad and overcome the weaknesses from the last campaign.
Die Knappen were on the brink of being relegated last year and ended in 14th place with 40 points. The Royal Blues have still managed to qualify for the UEFA Europa League by winning the DFB Pokal in the previous term.
Heldt added that Schalke are after http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/VfB-Stuttgart-c40879. The striker is reportedly in talks of a move to Veltins-Arena before the next campaign starts.
The chief claimed that although the Stuttgart fans have negative perception about the player because of his unimpressive scoring record at the club, he could well be a valuable addition to the http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Royal-95-c40387 Blues’ squad. Marica scored
19 league goals in 93 appearances in his four years at Die Roten.
“Even though the public perception of the player from his time in Stuttgart is negative, he ticks a lot of boxes of what we want from a striker, and there will certainly be a meeting later this week,” he was quoted as saying in
an interview.
The Sporting Director also revealed that Die Knappen are in talks to sign two forwards in this summer’s transfer window. He stated that the decision will be made in the next few days as Brazilian striker Edu has also expressed
his desire to leave Schalke and a replacement will be needed.
“We have two forwards from abroad on our shortlist, whose names we unfortunately cannot publicly name. But we will continue on this track. It now looks likely we could get a striker. If http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Edu-c12016 also leaves, we may also sign two new
attackers,” he concluded.
The Miners have already acquired http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/1-FSV-Mainz-05-c38166 and Eintracht Frankfurt respectively.
