The Director of Sport at Schalke 04, Christian Heidel has disclosed that the club will like to sign Ghana defender Abdul Baba Rahman on a permanent basis. Baba Rahman has made only a handful of appearances since completing a season-long loan switch from Chelsea.
However, his impressive display in last Saturday's loss to Bayern Munich has the top dogs at Schalke waxing lyrical about him.
The Ghana fullback joined S04 last month on a straight loan, without a permanent option.
Heidel insists the player could yet be persuaded to stay with the right offer to his parent club.
He explained: "His situation is a bit different. Chelsea is a bit more restrictive.
"In the end it depends then the player on whether he wants to stay with us. "
