Club icon Klaus Fischer sees FC Schalke 04’s transfer policy critically.
With a view to the project of the second division club, striker Moussa Sylla to sell in the summer, Fischer said “Football Legend Talk” in the YouTube format: “You now hope that he will still do one or the other goal and then get ten million euros for him. But someone has to explain how to get up if you give up the best players.”
Sylla had achieved the late compensation for FC Schalke 04 at the Wilden 3: 3 at Greuther Fürth (90.+5). Overall, the national player Malis is now at 14 hesitates in the 2nd Bundesliga.
Nevertheless, Sylla is considered a candidate for sale, since Schalke urgently needs revenue due to the DFL owning capital regulation to avert a point deduction.
“Selling the best players to reduce debts is the wrong way,” Fischer said. “Because then you don’t have a team that is competitive. The further you keep down, the fewer TV money there are. You need a team that can play above.”
Transfers at FC Schalke 04? “That is the task of the club”
Fischer’s interlocutor Rüdiger Abramczik hopes for transfer bargains for zero tariff in summer. However, these would have to be prepared promptly. “As a football club, you also have to take a risk. But due to the high debts, we probably do not allow ourselves anything. That’s why I say: You have to look now that you get a free -free player. You have to keep your eyes open.”
“You have to be on the way, in professional and amateur football, at home and abroad. That is the task of the club,” Fischer also demanded.
The 75-year-old was only in part of the performance in Fürth. “We are always able to score a goal at the front. But it is not true in the back,” he analyzed.
Abramczik complained: “The footballing in midfield is missing.” According to the S04 legend, players like Janik Bachmann or Mehmet-Can Aydin could “simply”.
FC Schalke 04 must be “smarter”
It was only with the substitutes of Aymen Barkok for the break as well as later Sylla and Amin Younes better. “Then we also had footballers on the pitch and got the equalization. I am convinced that we would have won the game if it had taken five minutes longer.”
Abramczik sees that the Schalke had recently announced several players, including Aydin, not want to extend their expiring contracts. “As a club, I have to be smarter. Because if a player is very sensitive, it will make it worse. You don’t have to open the barrel.” Aydin was “totally off the role against Fürth,” stated Abramczik.
