Schalke enquire about Nigerian striker Ilenikhena

According to Sacha Tavolieri, Schalke are among the clubs showing interest in signing George Ilenikhena from Al-Ittihad. The deal would be difficult for the newly-promoted Bundesliga side as the Saudi Pro League club paid €33 million to sign the Nigerian from AS Monaco in January.

However, the striker is already looking for a return to Europe after only six appearances, with five of them as a substitute. Al-Ittihad are reportedly open to a loan with a buying option.
