Schalke attacker Matthew Hoppe insists hes prepared to go down with the club should they be relegated this season.

Liverpool and Tottenham are among Premier League clubs watching the 19 year-old.

“I'll stay with Schalke - regardless of the league," he told Sport1.

“The most important thing for me is that I play and get my chance. I need that for my development."

The 19-year-old does not "worry about whether I play in the 1st or 2nd division, even if we of course still want to stay in the league."
