BERLIN: Croatia winger Marko Pjaca has joined Schalke 04 on loan from Juventus for the rest of the season, the Bundesliga club said in a statement on Friday. Pjaca made 20 appearances for Juventus in all competitions last season until he suffered a ligament injury in his right knee during a friendly for Croatia against Estonia in March. Although he has recovered from the injury, the 22-year-old has not been able to regain his place in the Serie A team. Schalke are second in the Bundesliga, 11 points behind leaders Bayern Munich.
