Last summer, the "Arsenal" club unsuccessfully tried to acquire Amine Harit, who decided to continue his career at "Schalke" team for an unusual reason. The 20-year-old was chased by several English teams during the summer, including the "Gunners". However, the Premier League clubs offering more money were left with nothing when "Schalke" came up with a unique way to invite the player to their team. As acknowledged by the German team's sports director Christian Heidel, noticing that A. Harit is an emotional player, the club started sending him videos, with very enthusiastic support from their fans. These videos helped the footballer to make a decision and switch from "Arsenal" to "Schalke". "We decided to show Harit the emotional performances of Schalke's fans and the atmosphere in which he could play. The supporters left an indelible impression on him," - Sport Bild admitted C. Heidel. The Moroccan national team player moved from "Nantes" to "Schalke" for £7 million in the summer. This season, in eight games, he already performed four assists.
Money is not everything: A. Harit chose Schalke instead of Arsenal for the sake of the team's fans.
