Schalke 04: Baumann brings Muslic and plans exciting transfers!
FC Schalke 04 relies on new transfers: Frank Baumann signs Miron Muslic and is targeting Bundesliga-experienced players like Puchacz.
Schalke 04: Baumann brings Muslic and plans exciting transfers!
A breath of fresh air is blowing at FC Schalke 04: With Frank Baumann, the club has brought a new decision-maker on board who will bring fresh impetus to squad planning. The 49-year-old sports director went on a trip to Gelsenkirchen with coach Miron Muslic (42) from Plymouth Argyle and recognized clear needs in the squad. The focus is particularly on players with Bundesliga experience, and the return of Timo Becker (28) from Holstein Kiel is already causing a stir.
Becker, a true Schalke fan and with plenty of experience in Germany's highest league, is an important building block in Baumann's plan. But that's not enough. The search for further reinforcements is already in full swing and the list of desired players is becoming more and more concrete. Among others, the left-footed Tymoteusz Puchacz (26), who was most recently active for Holstein Kiel and has already worked with Becker and Muslic, is on this list.
Looking at Katic and further plans
But it's not just Puchacz that is an issue for Schalke 04. Nikola Katic (28), a central defender with a Bundesliga past and former Plymouth Argyle player, is also in the focus of those responsible. Katic, who is currently under contract with FC Zurich until 2026, could be a welcome reinforcement for the defense. Under coach Muslic he played 17 games last season and even held the captaincy. His move would also strengthen the connection with the new coach.
On the other hand, interest in Puchacz is viewed as secondary. The negotiations for him could be difficult because Holstein Kiel has high financial requirements. Opinions are divided in the Transfermarkt community as to whether Schalke can afford the asking price. A loan seems to be a possible alternative to bring Puchacz to Gelsenkirchen.
The path towards the Bundesliga
Schalke 04's squad planning clearly shows that experience and quality are required. Baumann's vision could provide valuable impetus after struggling to return to the Bundesliga last season. Calls for further reinforcements are growing, and the next few weeks could be crucial for the club's sporting future.
Dynamic developments that need to be followed closely on the transfer market can also be found on platforms such as kicker.de.
The fans can hope for more news - it remains exciting to see which new faces will soon be wearing the royal blue jersey.
