Yes, because Schalke now have to buy on a large scale
The regulars disappoint, the hopes of the youngsters are not lit, the constant change of the head coach fails. The result: a paltry four points and 39 goals conceded in 14 games, 18th place. And now they are about to beat Tasmania Berlin’s negative record, which went 31 times without a win in the 1965/66 season. This is the FC Schalke 04 disaster.
The only solution: Schalke have to buy big in winter to keep their chances of staying.
Even if many club fans wanted to give up Clemens Tönnies’ cash injection, Schalke cannot afford it in the current situation. Because the alternative is the first Bundesliga relegation in 32 years.
Plus, free winter shopping rarely helps. The following top-tier pros do, however, and that’s why Schalke bosses have to ask them: Leverkusen’s Mitchell Weiser for the right-back position, Paris pro Julian Draxler and Liverpool’s Xherdan Shaqiri for wing offensive. Also, former Schalke Klaas-Jan Huntelaar for the forward. Each of these transfers would cost a lot of money, if they are feasible at all. But only players of this format really help in the current situation.
