Johannes Siebeking signs first professional contract
Schalke have retained the services of goalkeeping prospect Johannes Siebeking as the 19-year-old puts pen to paper on a deal running until 30th June 2029. The two-footed keeper will regularly train with the senior side, while also gaining match practice with the U23s. Siebeking completes the cohort of first-team goalkeepers alongside Loris Karius, Justin Heekeren and Luca Podlech, with the latter also having come through the Knappenschmiede.
