According to Bild, Schalke 04 is interested in Niclas Füllkrug, a 33-year-old DFB striker who has no future at AC Milan or his parent club, West Ham United.

According to Calciomercato, AC Milan will not retain Niclas Füllkrug after his loan from West Ham United expires, and Schalke are keen to sign the striker. This season, Füllkrug has scored one goal in 14 Serie A appearances for Milan, after making 8 Premier League appearances for West Ham. Other German clubs, including SV Werder Bremen and VfL Wolfsburg, have also been associated with the forward.
