Rabbi Matondo was among the wave of fearless young British footballers who set out to forge their futures in Germany.
The teenager left Manchester City for Schalke in a £10million deal last year and joined players such as Jadon Sancho and Ademola Lookman in the Bundesliga.
Matondo already has more than 20 appearances under his belt, he has made his senior debut for Wales and he is preparing for German football to return after the coronavirus pandemic.
'We've been back training every day for a couple of weeks,' said the 19-year-old, as he told Sportsmail how German football was plotting its route back into competition after the lockdown.
