at the end of the season.
The former Real Madrid attacker claimed that the Schalke fans are the best supporters in the world. He insisted that the fans are always behind the players and support them through thick and thin.

the club’s official website.
Raul added that he has no words to express his gratefulness to the fans as he has two of the best years in http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Germany-c2904. The striker also expressed his delight on securing a third place finish on the Bundesliga table to qualify for
the UEFA Champions League next season.

“I can't find the words to express my gratitude for the many wonderful moments. In footballing and financial terms that's very important for the club. I'm now going to celebrate a little with my family and friends. Third place
is a super outcome. To have played for Schalke has been so much fun,” he concluded.
Raul has thus far played 65 league games for Schalke in total and has scored 28 times in the process. The player inspired the side to the semi-final of the UEFA Champions League last term and played a vital part in Die Knappen’s
DFB-Pokal triumph last season.
