Youri Mulder returns: Schalke 04 relies on his former star!

FC Schalke 04 causes a sensation! Former striker Youri Mulder returns to the club's action and takes responsibility as sports director. After years on the Supervisory Board, the 55-year-old has agreed to take over the helm until a permanent successor has been found for Marc Wilmots.

Gelsenkirchen.

Mulder, who scored 32 goals in the Bundesliga for Schalke 04 in 177 games, will lead the business in the profile center. The association announced on Tuesday that Mulder will start his role as director of professional football as quickly as possible, even if it will only be officially started during the next international break. "He will work closely with squad planner Ben Manga," said the association. Mulder follows in the footsteps of his former teammate Wilmot, from whom Schalke broke up about six weeks ago.

Courage to change!

With a clear commitment to coach Kees van Wonderen, who could only get one point from his first four games, Mulder shows that he believes in the turn. "We are convinced that we will create the trend reversal with Kees van Wonderen," said Mulder optimistically. These clear words should give the team new boost and show that the club does not give up. The fans of Schalke 04 can be excited to see how things develop while Mulder proves to be in his new role and wants to steer the club's fortunes towards success.
