It was being reported the past few days that Real Madrid's all-time leading scorer, Raúl, finally signed a two-year contract with German side Schalke 04. The striker's exit was imminent after his reduced role with the Merengues, especially with the arrival of Cristiano Ronaldo and the emergence of Gonzalo Higuaín as top scorer of the club for a second consecutive season.

German daily SportBild is reporting that the former Spanish international will be moving to Gelsenkirchen after the team was willing to offer the player six million euros over two years.
