Overview
- Schalke 04 and MSV Duisburg confirmed on Tuesday that Remmert has joined Duisburg on a season-long loan with no purchase option.
- The club-level move follows a season in which Remmert missed long stretches with a sprained ankle, muscle and ligament problems and then spent most of the second half with Schalke’s U23.
- Schalke coach Miron Muslic publicly said in April that Remmert had not been part of the first-team group since January, a development that reduced his path into the Bundesliga squad.
- MSV describe Remmert as a physically strong, dynamic pressing centre-forward who will help replace outgoing attackers and also count toward the squad’s U-23 quota.
- Schalke keeps the player’s rights and views the loan as a development step; the immediate things to watch are Remmert’s minutes and form in the 3. Liga and whether regular play restores his pre-injury momentum.
