FC Schalke 04: Mike Büsken reacts to coach

The new Schalke Interimtrainer Mike Büskens has thanked its home office for the motivating encouragement because of its corona disease about social networks.

But the 53-year-old also stressed that the FC Schalke 04 is in the foreground. "This is not about Mike's Büskens, it's about the club. We are all called together to tackle the remaining nine games as successfully as possible," said the former Schalke Profi via Instagram.

Bücke, whose temporary tranSchalke was officially been officially followed on Monday evening, has followed the first training sessions with the tablet. As a head coach he did not want to work anymore.

"Young players in their career beginnings to accompany the contact person for club, team and head coach. With this requirement profile I could live very well. Now it came another way again," said Büskens.

On Sunday, Schalkes director Rouven Schröder had requested the assistant trainer. "He did not want to get an external coach for the end phase of the season. After talks with the family and Huub Stevens, it was clear that I have to take responsibility," said Büskens.

But only for nine games, then he will sit again as a co-coach next to the new chef coach.
