Bild reports on the contract extension and potential transfer of Taylan Bulut. Defensive jewel Taylan Bulut (19) has just extended his contract until 2029 but possesses a release clause. The highly sought-after right-back is almost certain to leave.

Taylan Bulut, a rising star at Schalke 04, has seen his market value increase rapidly under coach Kees van Wonderen. Despite his recent contract extension with Schalke, he openly discusses his future plans, indicating that he might soon leave the club. However, one of his dreams has been dashed. Further details require a BILDplus subscription.

Taylan Bulut is on the verge of extending his contract with Schalke 04, which features an exit clause valued in the millions. The contract extension will also bring a salary increase for Bulut. During the last winter transfer window, there was notable interest in Bulut; however, Schalke found the financial offers insufficient. With the new contract in place, Schalke anticipates receiving at least eight million Euros if Bulut transfers to another club. This amount is expected to rise if he joins a club that competes in European tournaments or a Premier League team.

Schalke is interested in extending Taylan Bulut's contract, which currently runs until 2026. However, Bulut, a highly sought-after defensive all-rounder, may consider leaving if Schalke fails to return to the Bundesliga in the mid-term. Negotiations for a contract extension have already begun, with a focus on a salary increase since Bulut is currently a low earner.
