Are Schalke back for good?

Available for over a year

Schalke are one of the traditional giants of German football, with seven top-flight titles and the UEFA Cup among their list of honours. Their imposing stadium, the Arena AufSchalke, has hosted World Cup games and the Champions League final. But in recent years, the team from the former mining city of Gelsenkirchen have been in the doldrums. They spent four of the past five seasons in German football's second tier - but have now returned to the Bundesliga. Can fans start dreaming big once more? More than the Score's Mani Djazmi talks to former player Christian Fuchs and BBC Sport's Nathan Edwards about Schalke's past and present, their bitter rivalry with Borussia Dortmund, and what it will take for them to return to their former glories. We also hear from Schalke's head coach Miron Muslic, who told the BBC's Euro Leagues podcast about what legendary Bosnian striker Edin Dzeko has brought to the club. Unexpected questions and beyond the scoresheet chat. More than the Score tells stories from all over the world of sport.
