Kabak rose to fame at Galatasaray after featuring in the UEFA Champions League aged just 17. He subsequently joined Stuttgart before making the move to Schalke last July.

The Turkey international has established himself as a first-team regular at Schalke this season, scoring three goals in 16 Bundesliga appearances this season.

Kabak could start for Turkey in the upcoming Euro 2020 following the long-term injury to Merih Demiral.

The 19-year-old has four years remaining his contract with Schalke.
