Emmanuel Gyamfi and Ngufor Anubodem (both 18) will also play for FC Schalke 04 next season. As announced by the Royal Blues, the expiring contracts of the young duo have been extended. S04 does not provide any information about the exact term. Right-back talent Anubodem was on the list due to his contract situation with AZ Alkmaar and FC Brugge, among others, but is now staying at Schalke.
“We are pleased that we were able to bind two more top performers from the current U19 team to the club”says Mathias Schober, Director Knappenschmiede and Development: “We are convinced that the boys are now also taking the next development steps in the senior area.” Both left winger Gyamfi and Anubodem made 19 appearances this season for the Schalke U19 team.
