Karel Geraerts had to keep Schalke 04 in the German second division. Our compatriot eventually succeeded in his mission quite easily.
Karel Geraerts went unbeaten in seven consecutive matches with Schalke 04. As a result, he kept the club out of the danger zone of the German second division. There will be another match against Gruuther Fürth and it could be his last in Germany.
After all, enforcing retention is not an automatic guarantee of staying at the top of Schalke 04 next season, and Karel Geraerts has already hinted in recent weeks that he has doubts about his future at the German club.
Schalke 04 currently ranks tenth in the standings. He still has a contract until 2025, but doubts about whether it will be terminated are very high. Geraarts said in his press conference that a meeting was planned at the club this week.
“I met with the board of directors and the discussions were positive,” says our compatriot. “Now it is up to me to discuss this matter with my mediator and my family.”
A return to the Jupiler Pro League is certainly still possible, although which club that will be remains to be seen. He will be particularly in demand at Club Brugge, but Nicky Hayne is also performing particularly well there at the moment.
