The story is, in effect, already over. Whatever interest existed in taking 22-year-old Serbian goalkeeper M. Dulić from Spartak Subotica to Schalke 04 has fallen away, and the latest word is unambiguous: the move is not happening. With Dulić tied to his current club until May 2028, there is no pressure forcing a deal through, and nothing in the current picture suggests the parties are inching back towards an agreement. This is a collapsed pursuit, not a paused one. The sourcing here is thin but pointed. The single live update comes from Dirk große Schlarmann, a reasonably credible voice, who states flatly that Dulić is NOT joining Schalke. That is one reliable report rather than a chorus, but its message is clear and direct, and there is no competing account suggesting otherwise. The fixed 4% reading tells you exactly how this looks: a longshot, bordering on closed. For that number to climb, you would need fresh, firmer reporting of renewed contact and a genuine willingness from Subotica to sell a player they control until 2028. Right now the opposite is true — the most recent credible word actively pours cold water on it, which is precisely why the figure sits so low. Schalke have spent in this market before, from Basel for £23m in 2016 to Stuttgart for £13m in 2019, so they are capable of serious outlay. But none of that history changes a deal that is simply not moving. Watch for any reliable source reviving the link or a concrete bid emerging. Without that, this stays dead.
