Actually, Tim Skarke’s move from Union Berlin to FC Schalke 04 had already burst. ‘Sky’ and ‘WAZ’ gave failed transfer negotiations between the Royal Blues and the Irons as well as a change veto by coach Urs Fischer as the reason.
Now the change of the 26-year-old to the miners seems to be imminent. The ‘Bild’ reports that the current bottom of the table is loaning the offensive player until the summer. In addition, Schalke have a purchase option that is valid for the first and second division.
According to the tabloid, the Gelsenkirchen loan will cost 250,000 euros until the summer. Skarke should complete his medical check-up with Schalke this Monday evening.
Update (7:46 p.m.): ‘Sport1’ also reported on the approaching deal. Skarke is completing his medical check at this moment. First of all, it is a loan.
