Schalke loans out Bernard Tepketey to Austrian side Altach

Austrian top tier side Altach have confirmed the signing of Ghana’s Bernard Tepketey on a season long loan deal.

The 20-year-old old will spend the entire 2017/2018 season on loan at the club as he looks to break into the Schalke first team next season.

Having gone through the first part of his development last season-it has been agreed that he should be allowed to go out on loan where he will get more playing time.

His future with Schalke is guaranteed as he recently signed a two year deal that has an improved pay package and option of recalling if he is needed at any point in time.

This development will come as a massive boost to a career that really got off with a surprise inclusion into Ghana’s AFCON squad in 2017.

He made his national team debut in that competition against Egypt and will be hoping that it continues to be a sweet telling point for him throughout his career.
