“I’m very happy that the move has come about. Schalke 04 have made an impressive development over the past few months, which I’ve followed closely from afar,” commented the new Royal Blue attacker.
“Jordan convinced us in the talks that he is very interested in Schalke 04 and our common mission to stay in the league,” said Schalke’s sporting director Rouven Schröder. Coach Frank Kramer added: “Jordan suits us very well with his way of playing football. He’s always looking for one-on-ones and is always able to assert himself with his pace and technique.”
