Gelsenkirchen (dpa / lnw) - The heavily indebted FC Schalke 04 is lowering ticket prices after relegation from the Bundesliga.

«All day tickets are cheaper.

The price for season tickets, for example, is reduced by around 15 percent.

In addition, one less game is debited and instead of three you can see four games for free, ”said Marketing Director Alexander Jobst, who is leaving the club at the end of the season, on Thursday.

When the Royal Blues - like all other clubs - will be allowed to play in front of spectators again is still open in view of the coronavirus pandemic.

Schalke is one of the clubs that would be most dependent on spectator income in view of 217 million euros in liabilities.

According to Jobst, the demand for tickets to Schalke is unbroken despite the relegation.

“That was by no means to be expected after this disastrous season,” said Jobst.
