Naldo will be looking to help Schalke secure second place in the Bundesliga table

Total Appearances: 27

Goals: 5

The Brazilian is currently having one of his best seasons in the German top-flight having played a vital role in Schalke being second in the Bundesliga table behind runaway leaders Bayern Munich.

Naldo has scored five goals in the Bundesliga in 27 appearances for The Royal Blues, with the highlight being the equaliser he scored against Eintracht Frankfurt in the dying moments of the game.

The former Wolfsburg man also has two assists to his name and has helped his side create a total of eight chances in the Bundesliga.

The Brazilian has a pass accuracy of 86% and also has been rock solid at back winning 64% of his duels and completing an average of eight defensive actions in Bundesliga matches.

Schalke will be hoping that their Brazilian defender continues his rich vein of form on both sides of the ground as they look to seal the second spot on the Bundesliga table.
