Roberto Di Matteo is new Schalke 04 manager

Schalke have scaked Jens Keller after a string of unsatisfying run of results. They have signed former UEFA Champions League winner and ex-Chelsea gaffer, Roberto Di Matteo.

The Italian has the best record of all the managers in Champions League. He will face his former club next up in Champions League return fixture.

Schalke in their official statement was as follows :

"With the change in coach we want to give a new impulse," said Schalke sports director Horst Heldt in a statement.

"We are absolutely convinced that Roberto Di Matteo can stabilise the team so as to reach its Bundesliga and Champions League goals.

"We are missing the necessary consistency to meet our targets. This is why we took this step.

"The performance of the team in the past few weeks has fluctuated."

The 44 year old has not been active in football since being replaced by Andre Villas-Boas in 2012.
