Moroccan centre-forward, Walid Cheddira, currently plying his trade at Serie A leaders SSC Napoli, is reportedly on the radar of 2.
Bundesliga outfit, FC Schalke 04.
Cheddira has had a quiet season at Napoli, with only a single appearance to his name and no significant contributions in terms of goals or assists. However, his potential transfer could be seen as a strategic move by Schalke, currently positioned 14th in the 2. Bundesliga, as they look to bolster their attacking options.
Standing at 187 cm and weighing 80 kg, Cheddira’s physical presence could offer Schalke a different dimension upfront. Despite Napoli’s impressive run in the Serie A, the Moroccan’s limited game time might make a move to Germany appealing.
The transfer window, having reopened today, offers a month-long opportunity for this potential move to materialise. It remains to be seen if Cheddira will trade the Italian top-flight football for a challenge in Germany’s second tier.
