Schalke makes fresh bid for Real Madrid Castilla coach RaulCarlos Volcano

Schalke is aiming to appoint their former striker as the new head coach.

Schalke sacked sporting director Marc Wilmots, head coach Karel Geraerts and assistant coach Tim Smolders over the weekend.

And their No1 target to replace Geraerts is Raul, who they have held talks with in the past about a return to Germany.

However, it's suggested the Spaniard isn't seeking to leave Castilla, after signing a new contract before the start of the season.
