Schalke have signed reported Manchester United and Arsenal target, Breel Embolo, from Basel and are feeling pretty smug about it.

Although it’s unclear just how interested we genuinely were – if at all, since the striker apparently had just about every club in Europe after him, according to the media – Schalke definitely wanted to make sure everyone knew that they had won.

Some people were a little confused over the gloating, considering it seems a little unprofessional from an official football Twitter account, but hey-ho, they didn’t mean any harm by it. And football is supposedly to be fun, after all!

The media are obviously twisting this to be a ‘dig’ at us but, let’s face it, our badge features for about a second and it’s not malicious in the slightest.

What do you think?
