The talented Podlech still has a contract in Gelsenkirchen until mid-2023, but according to reports there is little chance that Schalke will keep the goalkeeper on board. Last season, Podlech kept one game in the Schalke Under-17 squad and made his debut with Germany Under-16 in October 2020.

It is not the only goalkeeper desired by Ajax. Earlier on Tuesday it was announced that Daniel Bachmann had come into the picture at Ajax as a replacement for André Onana. Duncan Castles reported this in meldde The Transfer Windowpodcast. The 27-year-old goalkeeper of Watford, who was under the bar with Austria at the European Championship, is said to have already been approached by a representative of the team from Amsterdam. Ajax will only become concrete when Onana is sold.
