If Schalke win the CL, they will play in the CL group stage next season as title holders. There is no change for the other German clubs.

If Schalke win the German Cup there will be 4 German teams in CL and 2 in EL (losing Cup finalist will not qualify instead of Schalke).
If Schalke loses the German Cup final there will be 4 German teams in CL and 3 in EL.

So for example if Manchester united win the cup and there will only be spots remaining still for 2nd, 3rd 4th what happens to the extra place that Schalke did not achieve for the german league?

I'm not sure for Schalke : the rules say "If the Cup winner is qualified for CL, the runner-up get the EL spot".

Forza-AZ is right, CL regulations, 2.03:

c) If the titleholder comes from an association entitled to fewer than four
places in the UEFA Champions League and qualifies for the UEFA
Europa League through its domestic competitions, it is entitled to play in
the UEFA Champions League in addition to the association’s other UEFA
Champions League representative(s). In this case, the combined number
of places to which the titleholder's national association is entitled in the
UEFA Champions League and UEFA Europa League does not change.


Since yesterday, an academical question anyway.

If Manchester United win the CL (same is the case for Barcelona and Real Madrid), then the TH spot isn't used and the champion of country 13 (Switzerland) will start in the group stage, the champion of country 16 (Scotland) will start in Q3, and the champions of countries 48 and 49 (Faroer and Northern Ireland) will start in Q2
