Schalke 04 have completed the signing of Eintracht Frankurt striker Goncalo Paciencia on loan with an option to buy.

"We are pleased that we have managed to complete the signing of Goncalo Paciencia. The combination of physicality and technique is what stands out in his game," said Schalke head of sport Jochen Schneider.

"Goncalo will make us more dangerous and unpredictable in the final third," he added.

Paciencia has scored 15 goals and made seven assists in 61 games for Frankfurt.
