FC Schalke 4 has unveiled its away jersey for the upcoming second division season. There is a new feature.
FC Schalke 04 has unveiled the next part of its jersey set. This time, it was the away jersey’s turn. The fact that the base color is white will come as no surprise to most fans. Schalke is continuing with a relatively simple design, this time with a twist. A narrow royal blue stripe runs vertically across the left chest, behind the Schalke logo.
The main sponsor, “Sun Minimeal,” whose CEO Wolfgang Grabher recently spoke to this editorial team about the future of sponsorship, among other things, is also in royal blue, blending in with the design of the jersey. Schalke will present the jersey at their away game against 1. FC Bocholt on July 5 at 5 p.m. Schalke presented the jersey on social media. The first fan reactions on “X” are mixed. “Is the Schalke jersey really cool or really ugly? I don’t know yet,” asked one user. “I just bought a Schalke jersey with Timo Becker on the back,” wrote another. Timo Becker returned to his youth club FC Schalke 04 this summer from Holstein Kiel. The Herten native is expected to play a central role in defense. New sleeve sponsor for Schalke 04 Schalke has also recently presented a new sleeve sponsor. This will also be featured on the new away jersey. After just one year, the Gelsenkirchen-based Hegmanns Group is replacing heat pump manufacturer heatrex on the jersey sleeve. According to our information, the contract is valid until 2028, Bild reported first. Last season, the engineering service provider’s logo appeared on Schalke’s sleeve in two DFB Cup games.
“This partnership has stood for trust, loyalty, and genuine connection to Schalke 04 for many years. Stefan Hegmanns has repeatedly chosen Schalke, especially in difficult times, and has continuously developed the partnership: from box partner to sponsor, to member of the Zukunftsschmiede (Future Factory) and now to cup sleeve partner,“ said Schalke’s CEO Matthias Tillmann. This is an ”extraordinary sign of mutual appreciation.”
