The former West http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Royal-95-c40387 Blues bosses should soon decide on Raul’s future before his contract expires at the end of this season.
Having applauded http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Raul-c30652 for the way he has adapted to things at Schalke, former Real Madrid star, Gunter Netzer believes that the club bosses must work things out to retain the striker at the Veltins-Arena. He stated that Raul is
essential to Schalke’s cause and the attacker must spend at least one more season with the Royal Blues.
The former Borussia Monchengladbach star reckons that Raul is still going strong even at the age of 34 and should be offered a new contract. He suggests that Die Knappen need to assess the attacker’s situation very soon.
The Royal Blues bosses have recently held negotiations with the player but they are unlikely to offer the striker a lucrative deal which might not be good news for the fans who want to see the Spaniard spending another year at
the club.
While addressing a local publication, Bild, Netzer further added:
"From a sporting point of view, it is necessary to decide how important Raul is for the further development of the team. And, of course, the question is how much is he worth for Schalke's sporting performances.”
Netzer also stated that it is up to the club to decide whether Raul is important for the club’s good fortunes in the future. He insists that the officials must respect the emotions of the club fans, who are certainly eager to watch
the Spaniard scoring goals in the next season also.
"Schalke fans want to see Raul in a Schalke shirt next season, which is understandable. But that may not play a decisive role," Netzer concluded.
Raul has been the key member of his club since signing from Real Madrid in 2010 and has 11 league goals to his name so far this season from 24 outings. He will definitely play a key role in helping his side achieve Champions League
berth for the next season by finishing in the top four.
