FC Schalke 04: Reis’ Controversial Departure and Denied Last Wish

2023-10-02 10:55:15

It was a big blow at FC Schalke 04 when Thomas Reis was released on Wednesday morning (September 27th) two days before the away game at SC Paderborn. The poor results from the last few weeks were too much for those responsible.

After the separation, the coaches usually get the opportunity to say goodbye to the team once more. However, that was not the case with Reis and FC Schalke 04.

FC Schalke 04: Reis’ last wish is denied

Thomas Reis was at FC Schalke 04 for less than a year – and the chapter at the traditional club has come to an end following the weak start to the season. The Royal Blues would like to restore calm with a win once morest SC Paderborn (September 29th, 6:30 p.m.). However, it won’t be so easy when there are new revelations every day.

According to a “Bild” report, there are strong allegations once morest Reis. Peter Knäbel and Andre Hechelmann are said to have learned that Reis had secretly leaked internal information to the media. He wanted to defend himself once morest the accusations from the cabin. He allegedly felt that his superiors did not publicly defend him enough. That was too much for those responsible, which is why Reis was immediately fired (more on that here).

Was that perhaps also a reason why Reis wasn’t able to say goodbye to the team on the day he was kicked out? As “Sport1” reports, he was denied this wish. Reis was not allowed to join his team.

When asked, FC Schalke 04 did not want to say anything regarding this. Interim coach Matthias Kreutzer said at the press conference: “I saw Thomas briefly this morning. The sequence was very close. We were able to speak very briefly.”

Knäbel’s statements also showed how badly it must have crashed. One sentence in particular made the S04 fans cringe. “In terms of people and content, the situation was deadlocked,” said a visibly annoyed Knäbel at the press conference (DER WESTEN reported).

While Reis wasn’t able to say goodbye to the team, he did address emotional words to the Schalke supporters. “I would like to expressly thank all Schalke 04 fans. The support was simply incredible, especially in the second half of the Bundesliga. It’s very rare in all of Europe to have what feels like home games away from home so often,” said the ex-coach. “I felt and appreciated this support for the team at all times,” added Reis. I hope that sooner or later the club will be successful once more and generate more positive headlines – the fans definitely deserve it.”
