Schalke confident on new Raul deal

Schalke are confident that they can tie Spanish legend Raul down to a brand new contract. Raul's deal at the Gelsenkirchen comes to an end this summer, and the German side are hopeful that they can agree terms with the forward.

"All of the signals coming from Raul in recent days have been extremely positive," club president Clemens Tonnies revealed. 


"He has already dropped anchor in Schalke and he identifies himself with the club and the fans. He really feels happy here. I have a very good feeling."


Raul, 34, has been linked with a move to Premier League side Blackburn recently but the former Spain captain rejected a move to England whilst he is happy in Germany.
