Ralf Fährmann is being pushed out by Schalke's sports bosses Marc Wilmots and Ben Manga. His agent Stefan Backs visited Gelsenkirchen to discuss solutions, as Fährmann has been relegated to the U23 team since the start of training. There is a possibility of a last-minute transfer abroad, either as a second or third-choice goalkeeper. He also has an offer to be a starting goalkeeper from one club. Schalke would need to cover the salary difference since Fährmann's current salary is over 1 million euros and he would earn less elsewhere.

Ralf Fährmann is aware that Schalke 04 no longer plans with him. He must retreat to the U23 squad, which he admits is not easy for him.

Schalke 04 has informed Ralf Fährmann that they do not plan to keep him and that he should find a new club.
