Ruled out against Koln
Karaman (muscle) will miss Saturday's Bundesliga clash against Koln due to muscular problems, according to coach Miron Muslic. "Our captain will be sidelined with muscular issues."
Analysis: Karaman has been ruled out of Saturday's trip to Koln after developing muscular discomfort, dealing Schalke a significant blow in attack. The 32-year-old captain has recorded one goal and eight chances created across five Bundesliga appearances this season, establishing himself as an important part of the team's offensive setup. The severity of his injury remains unclear, with no definitive timeline established for his return. His absence further reduces Schalke's attacking options, particularly with Moussa Sylla (leg) also unavailable for Saturday's encounter.
Gets off the mark in loss
Karaman scored one goal to go with one shot (one on goal) in Sunday's 2-1 loss versus SC Freiburg.
Analysis: Karaman opened his Bundesliga scoring account in the 30th minute, redirecting Adrian Gantenbein's shot past Mio Backhaus to bring Schalke level. However, his equalizer was not enough to secure a point, as Freiburg reclaimed the lead through Keisuke Goto's late winner. Karaman has now recorded one goal, four shots and seven chances created across four Bundesliga appearances, including three starts. His first goal of the campaign adds to his attacking contributions as he continues to hold a prominent role in Schalke's lineup.
