Fahrmann aiming to regain Schalke starting role after Nubel departure

Ralf Fahrmann says he is determined to take his chance and regain the starting role at Schalke next season when Alexander Nubel moves to Bayern Munich.

Fahrmann was captain and first-choice goalkeeper for the Bundesliga side until midway through the 2018-19 season, when a groin injury and the emergence of young talent Nubel cost him his starting place.

The 31-year-old went on loan to Premier League side Norwich City this season, but played only 22 minutes of league football.

The form of Tim Krul kept Fahrmann on the bench, and he was injured in the first half of his only league start for the Canaries, a 2-0 defeat at Crystal Palace.
