Schalke offer to take Baros on loan

SCHALKE will today tell Liverpool they want to take Milan Baros on loan for a year with a view to a permanent deal for the Czech Republic international.

The German club will put their proposal to the European champions and, if given the go-ahead, Baros could be presented by Schalke within the next 48 hours.

Rudi Assauer, general manager at Schalke, said: “We have not yet spoken about all the figures yet. But we want Baros for a year on loan and at the same time an option to buy for 2006.”
