Tore Reginiussen joins Schalke

Tromso's Tore Reginiussen is now a Schalke player. The eight-times-capped Norway international has signed a contract that will tie him to the Royal Blues until 30 June 2013.

Schalke manager Felix Magath is delighted to have signed another young talent. Reginiussen is a central defender who can also be used in defensive midfield. "Tore is a very talented young player, so it's good that he'll be linking up with us in the winter break as that will allow us to ease him into the Bundesliga gently", said head coach Felix Magath on signing the 23-year-old.

Reginiussen began his footballing career at Alta IF in his home country of Norway. At the beginning of 2006 he then switched to Tromso IL, where he made 54 first division appearances (4 goals). The 1.85 metre defensive specialist has also played 15 times for the Norway under-21 side and made his senior international debut against Montenegro on 26 March 2008. (www.schalke04.com)
