Everything was perfect. FC Schalke 04 was more than happy with him and he loved FC Schalke 04. They almost managed to stay in the Bundesliga. Then he would have stayed with the Royal Blues longer, but everything turned out differently.
When FC Schalke 04 was relegated, Moritz Jenz also left the club. S04 simply couldn’t sign him, even if the defender would have liked to stay. The fan favorite initially had big problems at his new club, but can now look forward to a big moment.
FC Schalke 04: The wait for Jenz is over
“The decision to separate from you was unfortunately unavoidable and was neither in my hands nor in the hands of Schalke 04,” explained Moritz Jenz last summer when he had to leave FC Schalke 04. Because an obligation to buy would only have taken effect in the event of relegation. Fans mourned him. After all, the defender was one of the best in the second half of the season and repeatedly showed how much he loves the club.

But the departure followed. Jenz initially went back to FC Lorient and was then finally sold to VfL Wolfsburg. The 24-year-old had a difficult start there. He wasn’t on the pitch for a single minute. In the Bundesliga and also in the DFB Cup, Jenz only had to watch from the bench. He couldn’t get past Maxence Lacroix and Cedric Zesiger. Until now.
On matchday 4, at the home game against Union Berlin, there was a big surprise involving Jenz. The ex-Schalke player was suddenly in the starting line-up alongside Lacroix. An opportunity that Jenz definitely wanted to use for further missions. He showed a solid performance.

Jenz played a major role in the Wolves’ opening goal in the 12th minute. He won the ball, passed it to Wind and then watched as Majer made it 1-0 for VfL. A tailor-made start for the former FC Schalke 04 fan favorite. Jenz then kept the defense largely stable, but conceded the 1-1 equalizer in the 28th minute. Just a few minutes later, Wolfsburg took the lead again.
More news for you:
In the end it remained 2-1 for Wolfsburg. Jenz played the entire 90 minutes. A perfect debut in the Lower Saxony jersey. The Schalke fans, who have missed Jenz sorely since his departure, will also have noticed this. The Royal Blue supporters dream that there will be a reunion with the central defender at some point.
