Midfielder Schalke Eugene Konoplyanka will be fined for his words to the head coach of the team Marcus Weinzirl.

One of these days in one of his interviews Linnet sharply criticized the head coach of the Cobalt. The Ukrainian called a specialist a coward and suggested that under his leadership the team would fly out of the top division of Germany.

Evgeny's words did not go unnoticed by the leadership of the club, which decided to apply sanctions to the football player.

"Linnet will be punished and will receive a serious fine," said sports director of Gelsenkirchen's Christian Heidel.

What will be the amount of the fine and disciplinary punishment is still unknown. First, the club wants to talk with the player himself.

In the season that ended, Konoplyanka only came out 10 times on the field in the first team of Schalke, having scored 7 goals and 2 assists in all tournaments.
