Atsuto Uchida signed a three-year contract extension with FC Schalke 04 on Thursday (30th October), keeping him at the club until 30th June 2018. The Japan international’s previous deal was due to expire at the end of the season.
“It’s great news for us. Our fans in Japan will be especially thrilled,” explained sporting director Horst Heldt. “We have achieved our goal tying another player down to the club long term in the form of Atsuto, who is incredibly reliable and has played at a consistently high level for a long time.”
He was “delighted” after signing a new contract. “FC Schalke 04 is a very special club with amazing fans, who have continued to support me over the past years. The atmosphere in the VELTINS-Arena is phenomenal. I want to continue repaying our fans for the faith they have shown in me with more good performances in years to come,”.
