Schalke has officially started preparations for their return season in the Bundesliga, with coach Miron Muslić revealing updates about the future of Bosnia and Herzegovina captain Edin Džeko. Over 3,700 fans attended the first training session, showing strong interest. However, Džeko and Nikola Katić were absent from the training due to prior commitments. According to German outlet WAZ, Džeko's contract with Schalke expires on June 30, and he has yet to decide on extending his partnership. The decision was agreed to be made after the World Cup. Muslić stated there are no issues between the club and Džeko, emphasizing good communication and adherence to previous agreements. Džeko's number 10 jersey remains unused by any other player. Džeko played a significant role in Schalke's return to the top tier of German football last season, scoring six goals and providing three assists in 11 matches.
