After officially joining Schalke 04, Wellenreuther was assigned to Schalke 04 II in July 2013[3] Wellenreuther made his Schalke 04 II debut in the opening game of the season, where he kept a clean sheet, in a 5–0 win over VfL Theesen U19.[4] However, he struggled throughout the season, making eleven appearances, as he faced the season with injuries,[5][6] and suspension.[7] Nevertheless, he signed his first professional contract with the club, keeping him until 2017.[8]
In the 2014–15 season, Wellenreuther began to established himself as a first team choice goalkeeper for Schalke 04 II and played sixteen matches in the first half of that season. In the first team, he received a number forty shirt for the new season.[9] In January 2015, Wellenreuther was promoted to the first team after being called up by the first team for the training camp in Qatar.[10] He made his Bundesliga debut on 3 February 2015 against Bayern Munich in a 1–1 away draw. He replaced Fabian Giefer at half-time.[11] Three days later, on 6 February 2015, he made his first Bundesliga start, keeping a clean sheet, in a 3–0 win over Borussia Mönchengladbach.[12] He started the Champions League Round of 16 first leg match against Real Madrid on 18 February 2015[13] and played in the next leg at Santiago Bernabéu Stadium, in a 4–3 win but was eliminated from the tournament following a 5–4 defeat on aggregate.[14] Wellenreuther had a handful of first team appearances throughout February and March until he lost his first place in favor of Ralf Fährmann, who returned from injury, for the rest of the season and went on to make eight appearances in all competitions.[15]
After his loan spell at RCD Mallorca came to an end, Wellenreuther remained out of the first team for most of the 2016–17 season and was demoted to the reserve side, where he made nine appearances. At the end of the 2016–17 season, he was released by the club.[16]
