The Legacy

Schalke 04 finished fifth in the 1997-1998 Bundesliga season under manager Huub Stevens. Having lifted the UEFA Cup the previous year, the club entered this campaign with higher expectations. Adidas produced this third kit as the team competed on multiple fronts. Olaf Thon anchored the defense while Jens Lehmann provided stability in goal. Up front, Marc Wilmots and Youri Mulder led the line for the Gelsenkirchen side. The front sponsor Kärcher appeared on the shirts as the club pushed to establish itself among Germany's top sides after a period of significant European success.
