“Simon showed straight away how important he is for FC Schalke 04, not just on the pitch but also in the dressing room with the way he leads from the front. He’s a really vital player in our team, so we’re delighted that he will be with us next season too,” said sporting director Rouven Schröder.

I’ve got a lot I want to achieve with this team – we’ve still got a long way to go to reach our goals.

I’m really happy that my contract has been extended. I’ve got a lot I want to achieve with this team – we’ve still got a long way to go to reach our goals.”
