Overview
- Tchibara has advanced from running to regular exercises with the ball on Schalke’s training pitch in recent sessions.
- The attacker tore the anterior cruciate ligament in his right knee in late February at Darmstadt after two senior appearances and has spent seven months in rehabilitation.
- Muslic called his progress very good but said he will not announce a timeframe for a return to team training or match squads.
- Schalke have scored six goals in six competitive matches, yet any opportunity for Tchibara will come with stiff competition from Moussa Sylla, Christian Gomis, Kenan Karaman, Bryan Lasme, Christopher Antwi-Adjei and Emil Höjlund.
- The teenager rose rapidly from the U19s last winter and holds a professional contract running through June 2028.
